1 Define the scope and goals

Before you start any digital market research and analysis project, make sure you have a clear and shared understanding of the scope and goals with your team and stakeholders. What are the research questions, objectives, methods, data sources, and deliverables? How will you measure the success and impact of the project? How will you communicate and collaborate throughout the process? Having a well-defined and agreed-upon scope and goals can help you avoid confusion, ambiguity, and unrealistic expectations that can lead to conflict.

2 Respect different perspectives and styles

Digital market research and analysis can involve diverse perspectives and styles from different disciplines, backgrounds, and roles. For example, some team members may prefer qualitative or quantitative data, some may focus on details or big picture, some may be more creative or analytical. Instead of seeing these differences as sources of conflict, respect and appreciate them as strengths and opportunities for learning and innovation. Listen actively, ask questions, provide feedback, and seek common ground with your team and stakeholders.

3 Use appropriate tools and platforms

Digital market research and analysis can require various tools and platforms for collecting, storing, analyzing, and presenting data. However, not all tools and platforms are compatible, secure, or user-friendly. To avoid technical issues, data breaches, or frustration that can cause conflict, use appropriate tools and platforms that suit your project needs and preferences. For example, you can use Google Forms for surveys, Excel or SPSS for data analysis, PowerPoint or Tableau for data visualization. Make sure you test your tools and platforms before using them, and provide training and support to your team and stakeholders if needed.

4 Manage expectations and deadlines

Digital market research and analysis can be a complex and time-consuming process that involves multiple steps and stakeholders. To manage expectations and deadlines, set realistic and achievable milestones and deliverables for each phase of the project. Communicate clearly and regularly with your team and stakeholders about the progress, challenges, and changes of the project. Use project management tools , such as Trello or Asana , to track tasks, assign roles, and monitor deadlines. If you encounter any delays or difficulties, inform your team and stakeholders as soon as possible, and negotiate solutions or alternatives.

5 Resolve conflicts constructively

Despite your best efforts, conflicts may still arise in digital market research and analysis. When they do, don't ignore or avoid them, but address them constructively. Identify the source and nature of the conflict, whether it is related to data, methods, tools, goals, or communication. Acknowledge the emotions and interests of the parties involved, and express your own. Use respectful and assertive language, and avoid blaming or criticizing. Focus on the problem, not the person, and look for win-win solutions that benefit the project and the relationship.

Conflict happens because there are different objectives for different stakeholders. Sometimes these objectives clash with each other. Some don't like to be contacted through voice calls, some prefer calls with appointments are examples of such conflicts. To manage that, prepare guidelines for data collections, approach the stakeholders through email, whatsapp, messages BUT no voice call. Depending on their choice of media, interview them; then resolve conflicting objectives by offering an optimum solution. Your skill of mediating and negotiation will help resolve the situation. Write the solutions and get their buy ins. Writing is important because that will reduce any interpretation and mis-understanding.
