Hello Everyone!

As a doctoral candidate in the School of Business at Liberty University (Lynchburg, VA),&nbsp;I am researching leadership in relation to change adoption outcomes as part of the requirements for a doctoral degree in strategic leadership. The study will not be published but the organization will be provided a copy of the research and findings if they are interested. I am putting feelers out now in hopes of securing a subject organization for a May or June study (this is an estimate based on the approval process).&nbsp;

Expectations:

·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The organization will be within the&nbsp;United States,&nbsp;have more than&nbsp;300 people&nbsp;impacted by the change,&nbsp;and have closed out a change initiative at least one month prior to the study.&nbsp;&nbsp;More than four months could challenge recall for participants.&nbsp;

·&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Provide a minimum of 12 individuals to interview (but more as necessary encouraged), including the executive sponsor, change manager, project manager, managers, and stakeholders from each department impacted by the change. Interviews would take place on&nbsp;Teams or similar.

·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Survey all stakeholders and review archival data (e.g., executive communications, project messaging, hyper care reports/KPI updates, pre- and post-go live survey data, lessons learned, etc.) to triangulate the interview data. Ideally, the archival data will be in an&nbsp;electronic format&nbsp;already from your change initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp;

·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The change manager/practitioner would serve as the liaison for all interactions and provide names, introductions, and documents.

If you and your organization would be willing to participate in this study, I think it could be a win-win situation. An outside assessment of your change process may validate your process or uncover opportunities for enhancement. As for me, yes, I would be able to complete the requirements of my doctorate.

If you are interested or if you have questions, please let me know.

Regards,&nbsp;
