Data Bite March 2018

How do you spend your days in the IR Office? We asked participants of the National Survey of IR Offices to report how the Director of the IR Office and other IR professional staff (e.g., analysts, technical staff, etc.) spend their time. We found that for both role types, data collection and management of those data occupied the largest segment of their time, followed closely by analyzing those data and disseminating results. On average, staff spent about two hours per week on professional development activities.

Note: Data have been scaled to represent number of hours in a 40-hour work week.
