Abstract :
Despite the growing emphasis placed on research these days, it must be kept in mind that, unless it is properly directed, there is no guarantee that will be effective. Today, research management calls especially for examining the management of the total resources of research to achieve fundamental aims. Whether in the weapons industry to preserve the defense of our country, or in the industrial and commercial areas to preserve our economic, material, and cultural position, research management has become a survival issue. Using his own company as an example, the author emphasizes the point that the key to research management is, first of all, a deliberate determination of key strategies designed to achieve really major goals, followed by the pursuit of R & D tactics aimed specifically at the selected strategies.
