Presentation
Advancing Women and Leadership Theory Through Applied Theory Building
Academy of Human Resource Development International Conference in the Americas
(2015)
Abstract
This professional development workshop is sponsored by the Leadership and Career Development SIG. The goal of the workshop is to build capacity for theoretical and/or conceptual advances in women and leadership theory. To accomplish the goal, participants in this experiential workshop will 1) review selected theory building research methods and processes; 2) draw connections between their leadership research, personal leadership experiences, and the applied theory building research journey; and 3) work in teams to identify specific areas for future women and leadership theory development. The workshop is relevant to practitioners, scholars, and advanced students seeking to enhance their skills and understanding of applied theory building research. Knowledge of leadership research is not privileged over knowledge of leadership practice in applied theory building research—both types of knowledge are needed and valued equally.
