You are invited to participate in my DBA (Doctorate of Business Administration) dissertation survey which looks at the relationship between leadership types, motivating factors and the success of an organization. This survey is aimed at any person who is, or has, held any management or leadership position within an organization. This survey will ask questions about your personal leadership style and what motivates you to continue to do the job that you do. It will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete the questionnaire.
Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. The results of this survey will be used within my DBA dissertation. If you would like a copy of the results upon completion of the research, please include your email address on the form. Otherwise, no other personal information, except for your position in your organization is needed.
Your survey responses will be strictly confidential and data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and will remain confidential. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact, Jolynn Weeks, by email at
