One of the predominate challenges we face in our field is not having enough "hands on deck" to tackle all the work in front of us. This principal issue is accompanied by a litany of subsequent challenges that impact managers, coordinators, sponsors, stakeholders, and most importantly, study patients. We will discuss how to keep a team of research professionals seaworthy across entire studies by diminishing the strain on its members through provision of "floating coordinators" giving temporary coverage for projects and departments on an as-needed basis. We will break the ice on this topic, which we believe will become increasingly relevant, and we'll share our top tips for instituting and managing such programs wherever they are needed in the research enterprise.
