My colleague, Ty Olson, is conducting research on how academic leaders’ deep structures of consciousness influence their capacity to navigate conflict during periods of organizational change. He is looking for individuals with a minimum of one full year of experience as an academic department leader (e.g., Academic Deans, Associate Deans, Department Directors, and Department Chairs). Selected participants will be asked to participate in three separate interviews via Zoom over the course of a month to a month and a half. The interviews will inform the generation of a small case study on each participant, which will be compared and contrasted with the other case studies. The findings will be used to inform the field of leadership and conflict in institutions of higher education. These interviews are semi-structured and reflective in nature, and have been experienced as enjoyable and insight-building.
