THE POWER OF

National Council of University Research Administrators

62nd Annual Meeting August 9–12, 2020 Washington, DC


Welcome Dear Colleagues:

The AM62 Program Committee has been finalizing the 62nd Annual Meeting program “The Power of You,” scheduled for August 9-12, 2020 in Washington, D.C. The theme represents how we, as research administrators, have the power to inspire others, increase our success, and be a source of strength. It is practical and gives each of us a sense of controlling our own selves so we can positively impact others around us. The Power of You is an opportunity to discover our greatness from within, understand and cultivate every aspect of our professional lives, and reach our fullest potential with confidence. The vastly knowledgeable, diverse, and inclusive program committee members bring unique perspectives for which the participants will benefit tremendously. The workshops, panel presentations, concurrent sessions, discussion groups, and networking events are intended to create a meeting that is about You and for You. During the planning stages, the committee members expressed a desire that every offering provide attendees “knowledge, data and tools that can be immediately used, engagement, insight, connection, inspiration, enlightenment, collaboration, synergy, empowerment, and fun!” We hope attendees and family members of all ages join us on Sunday evening as we visit the newly opened International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C. To continue the good times, on Tuesday evening, please join us for a casual, speakeasy-style “Roaring 20’s” celebration of the milestone year 20-20. On Monday and Tuesday nights, each of the regions will host a NetZone where attendees can meet members within their own region or globally trot across all regions, as many opt to do each year. AM62 is the culmination of nearly a year of dedication and hard efforts from the program committee, NCURA staff, presenters, and volunteers. We are grateful you have taken the time to attend and hope that you take advantage of a wide range of professional development offerings, expand your research administration network, and, most of all, feel The Power of You by the end of the meeting! Join us for this year’s 62nd Annual Meeting, The Power of You! AM62 Chair and NCURA Vice President

The International Spy Museum features the largest collection of international espionage artifacts ever placed on public display. From the ice axe used to kill Trotsky to the East German bra camera used for surveillance photos, these artifacts illuminate the work of spies and espionage operations as well as help bring to life the strategies and techniques of the people behind some of the most secretive missions in world history. Go inside the hunt for bin Laden, hear real spies tell the stories of their most pulse pounding moments, or just try to hang like James Bond. You can also enhance your visit by accepting the Undercover Mission. This RFID-enabled experience tracks your performance on interactives and provides you with a debrief upon conclusion.

Networking When two or more people begin to discuss topics on a deeper and personal level, the NCURA Annual Meeting moves from being successful…to irreplaceable! Participating in the NCURA 62nd Annual Meeting gives you a unique opportunity to network with Research Administrators who face the same day-to-day issues as you. There are a number of benefits to networking with your colleagues at NCURA’s AM62! BRAINSTORMING. If two heads are better than one – just imagine how much better 20 or 30 heads will be. By networking with other people in your same situation you can uncover new solutions, new ideas and even new ways of looking at situations. RECHARGE. Comparing notes with other professionals helps to reinvigorate your enthusiasm. You are not alone! CONTACTS. Establishing a contact list of people you have personally met through networking at NCURA’s 62nd Annual Meeting makes future communications more personal whether it’s a call for information or a question. RESOURCE SHARING. Connecting with other Research Administrators, on a first name basis, makes sharing resources easy and helps ideas flow! MAKE NEW FRIENDS. It is not an unusual phenomenon for long-lasting friendships to originate at NCURA Conferences! NCURA’s 62nd Annual Meeting creates an excellent platform to network, share stories and experiences, ask for advice and generally compare notes. You can learn new techniques and different ways to approach situations.

It is the people that bring the ROI to your NCURA Annual Meeting experience. Don’t miss it!

Staying Fit while traveling Changing time zones, networking, educational sessions, dinner groups…let’s face it—travel to the Annual Meeting could leave you with little opportunity for fitness. And while you may be tempted to “forget” your gym clothes altogether, consider this: staying active can give you the energy and stamina you need to help you through those full days in Washington, DC! In fact, recent studies suggest that business travelers who exercise while they travel can improve reaction and alertness by up to 61%. Moreover, exercise boosts immunity defenses, triggers the release of brain endorphins, and even helps you sleep better. Check out our fitness options for you! MONDAY: 6:15 – 7:15 am

FITNESS TRACK: FUN RUN AND POWER WALK Come and enjoy a morning of fitness, fun and friendship! Meet in the main lobby at 6:15 am for this burst of fresh air. MONDAY: 5:30 pm

ZOO POWER WALK

Join your colleagues for an evening power walk to the Smithsonian’s National Zoo! A great way to end your busy day with fresh air and meet new colleagues. Members will be meeting at the terrace level entrance at 5:30 pm on Monday, walk to the zoo and enjoy a 1 hour power walk, leaving the zoo at 7 pm, returning back to the hotel at 7:30 pm. NCURA staff will meet you at the terrace level entrance to see you off with maps of the zoo to guide your Powerwalk! The Hilton is at 1919 Connecticut Avenue and the Zoo is at 3001 Connecticut Avenue, NW so it is a straight shot up Connecticut Avenue. Last admittance into the Zoo is at 6:00 pm, and Zoo closes at 7:00 pm. No sign up required...meet you on the terrace Monday at 5:30 pm! TUESDAY: 6:15 – 7:00 am

YOGA BLISS

Join NCURA’s own Tara Bishop for this restorative practice. We will bring ourselves back to our natural state of balance and tap into the bliss of body, mind and spirit. Namaste.

FITNESS CENTER

Open Monday-Friday, 5:30 am-10:00 pm; Saturday/Sunday, 6:00 am-10:00 pm. Keep to your fitness regimen in Hilton’s fully appointed fitness center with cardio treadmills and a variety of body toning machines and free weights – all guests staying at the hotel enjoy complimentary access to the fitness center.

EMBARKING ON THE LEADERSHIP PATH IN RESEARCH ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM LEVEL: OVERVIEW Career opportunities present themselves at any given moment. How do you open the door and make sure you are ready when opportunity comes knocking? This workshop will focus on identifying the steps needed to advance your career in research administration. Whether you are in a pre-award, post-award, or departmental office, we will outline basic skills to help manage, advance, or change your career. Specifically, we will discuss the art of networking, skills assessment and development, finding a mentor, setting career goals, and using emotional intelligence to better understand and manage yourself and those around you. We will also discuss important leadership skills and characteristics that can set you apart from the crowd and open new doors for you.

LEADING PEOPLE AND MANAGING MULTIPLE PROJECTS PROGRAM LEVEL: ADVANCED

AMANDA SNYDER* Associate Director, Office of Sponsored Programs, University of Washington

It’s time for your office to head new initiative on campus (again). There are bound to be bumps along the way, even in the smallest or the (seemingly) least controversial project. As a leader, you know that means extra work for you and your staff; managing people and expectations, some people will pull the project forward; others will desperately try to hold onto the status quo – all in addition to day-to-day operations and projects already in process.

DENNIS PAFFRATH Associate Vice President, Research, University of Maryland, Baltimore

Being able to translate the lightning reaction skills honed during your research administration career comes in handy when you dive into managing multiple projects and leading others through those projects. This senior forum will use scenarios (some “imagined” and others from our own experiences) to explore how a leader can keep everyone working together and prevent your projects from running amok. LEARNING OBJECTIVES • Participants will learn about foundational behaviors to lead a project through various stages. • Participants will be able to develop a greater understanding of communication and leadership skills as they apply to managing projects and those involved in the project. • Participants will learn how to ensure that project tasks are covered (without doing them all yourself) to include: – Keeping track of information from a variety of sources, – Making sure milestones are met, – Managing groups of people who do not report to you (and who have a lot of other priorities), – Soliciting feedback, – Communicating with stakeholders, – And ensuring successful roll out of the end product. PREREQUISITES Participants will benefit from prior experience leading activities such as policy development, business process development and implementation, system implementations or changes, or training program development.

DEEP DIVE: UTILIZING AN INTERNAL CONTROL FRAMEWORK FOR UG COMPENSATION COMPLIANCE

DAVID NGO* Associate Provost, Provost’s Office, New School

PROGRAM LEVEL: INTERMEDIATE The administrative burden placed on faculty and institutions performing research continues to be a major area of concern for the research enterprise at the federal and university level. Publications from the National Science Board (2014), National Academies of Sciences (2015), and the Federal Demonstration Partnership (Survey in 2005 and 2012) have reported or documented the extent in which the administrative burden placed on faculty can hinder the affordability and facilitation of science. One intent of the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200) was to address these burdens by streamlining policy requirements and focusing on research outcomes. This workshop will focus on the activities of a national Cohort of Institutions focused on creating an internal control framework to efficiently meet the requirements of Uniform Guidance 200.430 Compensation – Personal Services which includes alternative methods for the after-the-fact review of compensation charges (alternatives to “effort reporting”). This workshop will provide a deep dive of the Cohort Internal Control Framework, examples of how the framework can be used in institutional implementations and feedback from the audit community.

THE 20/80 RULE; HOW TO MITIGATE THE 20% OF PROPOSALS THAT CAUSE 80% OF AWARD HEADACHES PROGRAM LEVEL: BASIC Why does it always feel like a small number of proposals submitted cause us the majority of headaches when it comes to award management? Come join us for a discussion of issues surrounding: 1) budgets (ex. Detailed budgeting and substantiating costs, cost sharing) 2) compliance (i.e. IRB/ IACUC, biological specimens, participant vs. human subject) 3) award negotiation/terms & conditions (ex. what happens when the sponsor wants to award your grant proposal as a contract?) 4) international activities (i.e. export controls, Fly American, foreign nationals, foreign currency) We’ll unpack how to identify these matters early in the proposal development process, work with the proper teams at your institution during submission and document those points, and monitor and manage a successful challenging award. We’ll cover topics ranging from detailed budgeting to cost sharing to export control to human subjects. So please bring your questions and we’ll work through them together.

CRITIQUING PROPOSALS WHEN YOU’RE NOT A WRITING OR SUBJECT MATTER SPECIALIST (HANDS-ON) PROGRAM LEVEL: BASIC Pre-Award research administrators see dozens or even hundreds of proposals per year and understand what a successful proposal looks like. They are therefore experts in how to put together a competitive proposal package. However, they do not necessarily have ‘proposal development’ in their job descriptions, so too often they are perceived as ‘packagers’ or ‘processors’ rather than team members who actually add value and can add even more value if provided appropriate professional development. The approach the co-presenters will share in this workshop will show participants how they can add value to the proposals they see daily. In fact, this workshop is designed to empower participants with strategies and tools to use either when asked by researchers to critique proposals before submission or when participants themselves wish to move beyond being perceived as mere proposal ‘processors.’

PAUL TUTTLE* Director of Proposal Development, Office of Research Services, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University

MARJORIE PIECHOWSKI Director of Research Support, College of Engineering and Applied Science, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (Emerita)

LEARNING OBJECTIVES • This workshop will serve as one way to introduce participants to the proposal development component of research development – both as an approach in adding value to proposals and as a potential career. • Participants will understand a broader and deeper approach to proposal development that will allow them to add value to investigators’ proposals for increased competitiveness. • Participants will take home strategies, tools, and related knowledge that they can use in their current positions or at their current institutions. • Participants will learn about opportunities to advance their careers via increased professional development from this workshop and the new perspective it offers.

ORGANIZING YOUR OFFICE FOR SUCCESS AND EFFICIENCY PROGRAM LEVEL: ADVANCED The functions performed by a Research Administration office, broadly defined, are essentially the same the world over. As Research Administrators, we assist our faculty in finding new sources of funding, we ensure our institutional standards remain intact as our researchers submit new requests for funding, and we negotiate and manage awards through their lifecycle, among many other activities. What is different across institutions is how we structurally and organizationally manage our offices. This workshop will focus on several organizational structures, how these structures work, and the impact of the various structures on operational best practices. Specifically, we will address the benefits, efficiencies, and challenges of the traditional Pre-Award and Post-Award structures along with associated work allocation models, plus look at other functions that have been more clearly defined in recent years, i.e., research development and information technology functions. We will examine why one structure may work at one institution, but not at another. Be prepared to share your organizational structures as well as your organizational challenges.

Night at the

INTERNATIONAL SPY MUSEUM NCURA’s 62nd Annual Meeting will begin at the NEW International Spy Museum! The International Spy Museum features the largest collection of international espionage artifacts ever placed on public display. From the ice axe used to kill Trotsky to the East German bra camera used for surveillance photos, these artifacts illuminate the work of spies and espionage operations as well as help bring to life the strategies and techniques of the people behind some of the most secretive missions in world history. Go inside the hunt for bin Laden, hear real spies tell the stories of their most pulse pounding moments, or just try to hang like James Bond. You can also enhance your visit by accepting the Undercover Mission. This RFID-enabled experience tracks your performance on interactives and provides you with a debrief upon conclusion. Enjoy an evening of delicious food and refreshments, while exploring the amazing exhibits and networking with your colleagues. This event is included in your conference registration. Guest tickets will be available for purchase in June. Bus transportation to and from the museum will be offered, along with a heavy hors d’oeuvres.
