This study will look at how academic leaders’ (i.e., department deans, associate deans, department directors, and department chairs) deep structures of consciousness influence their capacity to navigate conflict during periods of organizational change.
This study will involve 6 to 10 leaders from universities and colleges located in the United States. Participants will be asked to participate in a series of 3 separate interviews. The interviews will inform the generation of individual small case studies, which will culminate in a multiple comparative case study. The results are intended to inform the field of leadership and conflict in institutions of higher education.
All responses to questions are completely confidential.
