Episode 30: Normalising failure - learning from a fieldwork fail with Ruby Annand-Jones and Paris Tuohy
When Paris Tuohy and Ruby Annand-Jones failed to collect the data they needed for their research, they felt frustrated and guilty - not just about the project, but for the community they were seeking to serve. But as they shared their feelings with more senior researchers in their team, they discovered that they were not alone in this experience, and started to learn lessons that would reframe how they viewed failure, at the same time as getting their project back on track. In this interview, you will get valuable tips on how to be sufficiently brave and flexible to pivot your work, and the importance of having people you can debrief and be vulnerable with, to cope with the inevitable failures that accompany every research project.
