writing a dissertation proposal

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2013.10.22

I'm writing my first-ever dissertation proposal at the moment. It's an interesting challenge. I'm thinking of making a study into whether what I've done at work is something that can be repeated and made useful across broader industry as a whole. Yes, I'm going to attempt to blend audit, marketing, and strategy into a single paper.

One fun tip I found: "Make figures that other will want to steal. They will cite your paper because they want to use your figure in their paper."

It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.
