Not as it is, but as it could be . . .
• Leadership never occurs in a vacuum. Organizational culture change improving results and profitability require engaged followers whose hearts have been moved by a vision communicated and demonstrated by those in power.
(Deal, 1982; Avolio 1999; Senge, Kleiner, Roberts, Ross, & Smith, 1994; Kouzes & Posner, 2007).

Why are you here?
![Page 6: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why are you here?
• Because you have a vision (clear or cloudy) of greatness beyond who you are today.
• Because you want to compete in a global marketplace, whether your business/organizational level ever extends beyond this region.
• Because you believe you can have a positive impact.

Scientific Research
• Must always be able to be replicated by others (open and public as possible).
• Today more than ever a global perspective is needed for local application.
• In research, results often lead to new questions.– This cycle = dynamic,
growing body of knowledge in a field or discipline
![Page 16: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Types of Research
• Experimental – The researcher(s) establishes treatments and then studies their effects– Leads to the most clear-cut
interpretations– Control group and
experimental group– Only change one (1) variable
at a time
![Page 17: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Types of Research
Qualitative
• Generates non-numerical data. It focuses on gathering of mainly verbal data rather than measurements. Gathered information is then analyzed in an interpretative manner, subjective, impressionistic or even diagnostic ways.
Quantitative
• Generates numerical data or information that can be converted to numbers
• Creates statistical models
![Page 18: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Types of Research
• Ethnographic – Is an emphasis on documenting or portraying the everyday experiences of individuals by observing and interviewing them and relevant others– Qualitative: grounded in the assumption
that individuals construct social reality in the form of meanings and interpretations, and that these constructions tend to be transitory and situational.
– Includes historical research, biography, phenomenology (focus on a particular phenomenon like Board conflict), case studies.

Types of Research
• Correlational - Determining relationships among two (2) or more variables and explore implications for cause and effect.– Helps us make more intelligent
predictions– Requires no manipulation or
intervention by researcher other than administering an instrument to collect data
– Usually used when looking for and describing relationships among naturally occurring phenomena
![Page 20: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Types of Research • Survey Research - Obtains data to determine specific characteristics of a group.– Written questionnaire
(MLQ, LPI, Zoomerang, Survey Monkey, etc.)
– Interviews & Focus Groups– Closed and open-ended
questions
![Page 21: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Types of Research
• Action Research - Conducted by one or more individuals or groups for the purpose of solving a problem or obtaining information in order to inform local practice– Generalization to other
persons/settings/situations not important
– Active involvement of participants or stakeholders; levels of engagement can vary
![Page 22: Introduction to Research, Week 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554c5b74b4c905452e8b5074/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Types of Research
• Evaluation Research - Makes judgments about the quality of particular programs, procedures, materials, etc.– Data collected then compared against a set of
criteria used to indicate quality

Systematic Reviews, Meta-Analysis, and Research Synthesis
• Involves searching the literature, assembling studies for review, coding and combining studies, and interpreting and reporting the results. The rationale behind using this approach is that examining many related, well-conducted studies is more productive than relying on a single study.
• This is your focus for this class.

that is both passionate for you and has implications for your career and life.
