Literature Review (Part 2): The Architecture of Synthesis

Don’t Just Summarize. Synthesize.

Date: 10th Feb | Time: 16:30 – 18:00 CET | Location: Microsoft Teams

In Part 1, we mastered the search. Now comes the most challenging—and rewarding—phase of the DBA journey: Synthesis. Many doctoral candidates fall into the trap of writing a “book report” (Author A said this, Author B said that). To succeed at the Level 8 degree, you must move beyond summary to critical analysis. This session provides you with the executive toolkit to organize, code, and theme your research into a powerful argument that justifies your study.

What We Will Cover:
The Blueprint of Creation: A step-by-step process for moving from a raw bibliography to a structured Literature Review draft.

The Power of Protocols: How to use review protocols to ensure your research is rigorous, reproducible, and defensible during your viva.

Coding for Clarity: Practical techniques for “coding” your data—extracting the core variables, arguments, and findings from complex academic papers.

Thematic Development: Learn how to “connect the dots” by identifying recurring themes and critical gaps in the current body of knowledge.

Key Takeaways:
Leave this session with a systematic method to organize your research. You will learn how to stop “writing about papers” and start “building a conceptual framework” that positions you as a thought leader in your field.

Who Should Attend?
Specifically designed for DBA scholars who have begun their reading and are ready to start the writing process. If you feel overwhelmed by the volume of information you’ve collected, this session is your filter.
