How to write a good introduction?

Last week I got feedback on my third article for my dissertation and my promotor gave me some tips to rewrite my introduction(See blog of 10 december). I also read the article of Adam grant about writing an introduction: setting the hook Grant 2011 Introduction guidelines article

This week I wrote a new introduction using this feedback. If you want to you can read it and perhaps share some comments with me by emailing me at m.haring@hva.nl

Getting feedback on my third article


This week I discussed my third article with my promotor Tom Elfring and one of my supporters Mirjam van Praag. There is stil a lot of work to be down to make this article ready for my dissertation, but they were both positive about the topic and the content (How will the social capital of employees contribute to the social network of a company?). Tom had some comments on my introduction and he sent me some guidelines to help me to structure the introduction of my article, so if you’re working on an article, feel free to use his advice: Introduction guidelines article

Last month I also worked on the introduction chapter of my dissertation and I am aiming to work on it more during the x-mas holidays. As everything goes as planned, my dissertation must be ready somewhere in 2018.
