I also hold an MA in Business Administration from Webster University and a BS in Industrial Technology from Southern Illinois University-Carbondale. Dr. Woodsmall has always been a fan of leadership concepts. Hi dissertation topic was “Transformational Leadership and Organizational Effectiveness.” Interestingly, and his specific research contributed to the conflicting views in the literature as to whether leadership creates or is created by the organizational culture; in my case the organization’s leadership team clearly created the transformational culture in the subject organization.

There are many cases where a student goes through school without stopping. He/she went from Kindergarten to PHD without taking any water breaks. Everything has a pro and a con. On one hand, one can graduate in his/her mid twenties and have their whole life to gain experience. There is also another option is what many more students choose: to gain experience. After obtaining their Bachelors Degree, one may decide to take a year off and get a job. Afterward, obtain their Masters after gaining that experience. By the time their PHD is completed, they are almost 40. Is it worth it to gain experience and prolonging the road to becoming a doctor, or is it better to go from start to finish nonstop. Is it more about the sprint or the marathon? www.gwynconsultingservices.com

Literature Review Chapter 2 of the Dissertation process - techniques to help you with disseminating, analyzing, and synthesizing information. Dr. Wanda Gwyn (Florida) Dr. Kimberly Handy (Alaska) Dr. Nicole Antoine (Texas) Dr. Petra Roesner (Hawaii) Petra’s dissertation, titled “Beyond the dojang: A phenomenological perspective on transferring the virtues of Taekwondo into daily life,” allowed her to focus on two areas of interest: Taekwondo and moral and character education and development, which resulted in the finding that the Taekwondo culture can be a model for ethical leadership and followership. Some of Petra’s other areas of interest and expertise are women’s health, child and adolescent development, and research methodology, qualitative research in particular. Bring a pad and pencil to take notes on how to improve your Chapter 2 in your qualitative or quantative dissertation.

Join Drs. Gwyn, Handy, and Antoine to discuss online learning - the pros and cons of an online degree. These days, the internet has grown into a veritable wealth of information for college seekers. Everything from applying for financial aid to taking a course can be accomplished online. Now, a student can even obtain online degrees from one of many schools offering online education as a viable alternative to a traditional classroom education. How different are these two methods of teaching, and do either prove better for the student? There’s an abundance of information regarding online education, and distance education is becoming increasingly popular for students everywhere. Carlos, D. (2010, February 25).
