13. Capture, track and log all your team’s dissemination and impact activities together in one place. Export data in a variety of formats for reporting to your funder or institution. Use evidence of engagement across all your different channels as ‘breadcrumb trails’ for finding the evidence of your impact. Access a range of metrics for all your projects, publications and other key outputs – including views, downloads, citations, ‘altmetrics’ (online attention) and unique measures of reach (by audience type) and significance (trackable results). Map activities to metrics to learn which efforts have proved effective. Create and share profile pages for your projects, publications, and other outputs (posters, slides, videos, data etc). Use Kudos trackable links to increase visibility of your work within your own networks. Target a broader audience via Kudos dissemination, including global showcases for the media, industry and policy makers. Set up a dissemination plan for a project, body of work or for individual publications and outputs. Include activities you have already planned, or be inspired by our recommendations. Select, schedule and manage tasks across your team to ensure dissemination and impact activities are coordinated and captured. PLAN MANAGE TRACK REPORT Kudos for Research Groups Any research object or output Any communication activity, online or offline Any audience Any size of group
