SUMMARY:Applications of Behavioural Science to Quantitative Market Research
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by MIS Group  \n  \nOver the past decade or more\, many market research agencies and their clients have been influenced by findings from behavioural science. In particular\, some agencies have incorporated insights and approaches from behavioural science into their qualitative research offer. \nHowever\, while some have also had similar success in quantitative research\, there remains significant untapped potential here. A huge opportunity exists for clients to improve their ability to understand\, predict\, and influence key stakeholder behaviour – through application of behavioural science insights and approaches to quantitative research. \nThis webinar will provide you with both the theory and tools to rectify this. We’ll first examine behaviour change models in detail. Next\, we’ll look at behavioural economic approaches. Finally\, we’ll cover personality trait insights. \nThis webinar will provide both the rationale for why\, but crucially also the “how to”. Importantly\, everything described will complement existing quantitative research techniques and data collection methods. Therefore\, no significant initial investment is required to put any of these approaches into practice. \nThe webinar will also summarise the highlights from a detailed\, upcoming 35-page guide: Applications of Behavioural Science to Quantitative Market Research. A free copy can be pre-ordered here: https://www.activate-research.com/quantitative-research-guide \nChris Harvey \n \nChris Harvey is the Founder of Activate Research\, which inspires change and drives growth through enabling a deeper understanding of how people think and why they behave as they do. Drawing on an MSc Behavioural Science and 15 years research industry experience\, Activate Research adds complementary insights and approaches from behavioural science – and psychology more broadly – to agencies’ research offer. This enables end clients to better understand\, predict\, and influence target audience behaviour. \n \nREGISTER FOR THIS FREE WEBINAR HERE

SUMMARY:Using Anthropology in Market Research
DESCRIPTION:Using Anthropology in Market Research with Dr Jonathan Newman\, Deep Research – Thurs 25 Aug \nGenerously sponsored by Indiefield  \n \nAnthropology helps understand how different people know the world in different ways and how they make meaning and act in accordance with their visions of where they are. For market researchers\, such knowledge is invaluable because it takes us into the changeable realms of interpretation\, desire\, socially acceptable norms and value. \nThe talk gives an overview of social anthropology and ethnography in order to provide perspectives and tools to help researchers dig a little deeper. \nRegister here \nONCE YOU’VE REGISTERED\, LOGIN FOR THE WEBINAR IS https://meet.goto.com/145863309 \n

SUMMARY:ICG Webinar: IR35 And Its Effect On All Off Payroll Workers\, Contract And Temporary Workers
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by Perspective Research Services  \nWith advice from Cognitive Law and specialist knowledge from governing body ASPCo\, ENI have produced some information on IR35 and the legislative changes coming in April 2020. \nIR35 should be coming into effect for the private sector on April 6th 2020. How much do you know about it and its effect on you? \nThis webinar aims to cover the basics of IR35\, how the upcoming developments may affect contractors and companies\, situations in which you’d fall into IR35 and when you’d be exempt from it\, and how contract work commissioned by larger companies may be affected. \nA webinar for anyone who contracts their services out to other organisations. \nThis webinar will be run by Liz Norman of recruitment specialists Elizabeth Norman International. Liz cares passionately about our industry and has been struck over the last months with how few contractors know anything about this legislation. She believes that the legislation may have the following effects; \n\nIt may create a very divided market for freelancers/contractors\, as they will only be able to work in the traditional way for ‘small’ companies and agencies.\nMedium and large companies including large consultancies and the end client may stop using contractors and freelancers altogether.\nThe other option will be large companies give the work they are currently commissioning to contractors to contractors through a recruitment consultancy or umbrella company\, or take them on as permanent employees (which is the option a couple of the large research agencies are looking at)\n\nMore about Liz Norman \n \nLiz Norman is the Founder and CEO of Elizabeth Norman International\, which specialises in recruiting both permanent and contract roles for the market research\, data and insight industry. With over 30 years’ knowledge of the industry\, Liz has partnered with a number of leading industry bodies\, as well as working as a mentor to both individuals and clients. \nRegister for this important\, free\, webinar here\n  \n \n

SUMMARY:AQR/MRS Recruiter Accreditation Scheme (RAS): The Why\, the What and the How
DESCRIPTION:A webinar for both recruiters and researchers alike\, explaining everything you need to know about the new AQR /MRS Recruiter Accreditation Scheme (RAS). \nThis webinar is generously sponsored by The Talking Shop: 3 gorgeous\, perfectly equipped studios that are perfectly placed in the heart of the diverse\, creative city of Manchester. \nThe RAS has been introduced to improve the quality of qualitative recruitment throughout the qualitative recruitment supply-chain.  The success of the Scheme will depend upon buyers of qualitative recruitment services to make positive choices and to buy quality recruitment from recognised accredited recruiters and recruitment organisations\, as this will drive demand for recruiters to seek accreditation. \nWebinar presenters Debrah Harding (MRS Managing Director) and Lynne Chapman (ICG member and a recruiter)\, are part of the RAS Working Group that developed the Scheme and during the webinar will discuss: \n\nWhy RAS was introduced and the background to the development of the Scheme\nOutline the benefits for recruiters and buyers of recruitment services\nExplain how the accreditation works\nIntroduce you to  free training materials.\n\nTeaser question – just to get you thinking: \n You have been asked to recruit using social media for a car manufacturer\, who wants to recruit male drivers aged 30-50 years who drive a specific type of car.  Which of the following would not be acceptable for a recruitment post on social media? \n\nSpecifying that you are seeking men aged 30-50 years\nSpecifying that you are seeking car owners\nSpecifying that you are seeking car owners who drive a specific type of vehicle\nAll of the above are acceptable.\n\n(The correct answer is 3) as this is revealing too much detail and may lead to fraudulent participants trying to fit quotas in order to participate in research to receive an incentive.  1. and 2. are an acceptable balance between too little and too much information). \nClick here to listen to a recording of this webinar\nDownload webinar slides here\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \n

DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by Babble\, a vibrant & modern facility that’s designed to bring research\, meetings & training sessions alive in the West Midlands \n  \nICG member Cathy Kennedy says she couldn’t live without Trello! She uses it for all her project work within her business as well as in her personal life.

Find out what Cathy loves about Trello and see how it compares to other tools out there. ICG members can continue the conversation about online project management tools after the webinar\, through our website forum\, if they wish to. \nAbout Cathy \n \nCathy has had various roles in research for over 15 years\, and have specialised in Fieldwork Management for 10 of those. She’s been working as a supplier for large government departments over the past 3 years and has had to juggle up to 30 simultaneous live projects on occasion.  The only way she could manage to keep on top of everything was with Trello.  She’d never used it before and it did take some getting used to\, but it’s now her best friend and she’s continually discovering more uses for it.  She’s in the throes of organising an international house move – and her  Trello boards will ensure that nothing gets forgotten or missed – and she doesn’t have to pay a removals company to manage all the admin for her! \n  \nLISTEN TO A RECORDING OF THIS WEBINAR HERE.  \nSLIDE DECK HERE.  \nLinks for further info about Trello: \nhttps://help.trello.com/article/734-how-to-use-trello-like-a-pro \nhttps://blog.trello.com/using-trello-like-a-pro-part-2 \nhttps://blog.trello.com/using-trello-like-a-pro-part-3 \nMultiple Boards: https://blog.trello.com/using-multiple-boards-for-a-super-flexible-workflow \nResources – Hive Mind! https://trello.com/b/nPNSBZjB/trello-resources \nLink to download the free apps for smartphone and desktop (Mac & Windows) \nGeneral help via Trello \n  \n  \n  \n
