soNormal'> Jonathan Hale, as a member of the original selection committee overseeing the international competition, was involved from a very early stage in the development process. I intend to conduct an initial pilot interview with this panel member, as his extensive background knowledge could prove invaluable and he could also identify further potential key interviewees. This initial interview would not only give me good insight into the decision making process but also test the suitability of my devised questions for future subjects.

In approaching the interviewees in both the pilot and main interviews, I intend to give a brief description of the topic to be discussed in advance, explain the format I intend the interview to take and request an appropriate amount of their time.

Whilst it is tempting to interview several people simultaneously, by gathering in one place, such a scenario could be difficult to control and some participants may offer more of an opinion than others. Instead, I plan to interview each person individually with a number of predefined questions derived from my original three core questions guiding the research. Supplementary questions would also be used to facilitate further discussion should the original question be unclear to the interviewee or not specifically relevant to them, dependent on their role in the process. This structured approach will prevent the interview from straying away from the emphasis of the research question, yet provide more flexibility than a questionnaire.

For the purposes of the initial pilot interview I intend to record the interview through traditional note taking rather than using audio recording devices. Transcribing the discussion afterwards would be unnecessary for this initial stage, but is something I would introduce in the main interviews, despite the risk it may make the interview seem more formal to the participant.

The fundamental focus of the interview series is to obtain opinions on what were the strategic driving forces behind the development; what planning and policy documentation has been produced before, during and after and by whom; the context in which the documentation was produced; the brief outline and to what extent was it followed or adapted, and whether any key findings/decisions can be applied to future developments in the Lace Market or more further afield.

Any documents/legislation mentioned in interview that I wasn’t previously aware of, can then be sourced by name and analysed in a further stage.

The pilot interview (the full layout of which can be seen in the appendix) was positive in outcome as I gained a large amount of background information. As the interviewee was willing to talk very broadly about the subject, often the conversation would peel off on a tangent. As a result the interview lasted much longer than anticipated and not all本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
