This innovative book compiles accounts of six exemplary research journeys, each revealing the complex realities faced by researchers in their field. Detailing the processes followed and paths to producing research outcomes, candid and compelling insights are provided into the challenges both faced and overcome. These reflections are balanced by commentaries from experts in the field, situating each case study within a broader research context.

Utilising case studies and in-depth discussion, this book outlines the ideas and techniques which underpin exemplary research, to assist in the application of this theory in relation to their own research. Chapters highlight methods for critically evaluating research and identifying key strategies and potential pitfalls. It also provides a window into the roles played by the emotional research processes hidden from view in final publications, such as persistence, collaboration and embeddedness.

Doing Exemplary Research Projects is a fundamental resource for research students and early career researchers looking to develop their skills. This book is valuable for students in business and management disciplines, especially those interested in projects and temporary organizing. It is also a useful pedagogical toolkit for senior academics teaching graduate research development.
