It is 3pm and I have two more hours at the library, but I am zonked!!\u00a0 I started the day very early with tennis and grocery shopping.\u00a0 I then departed for the library at about 1030.\u00a0 I think that the early start may explain why I feel like it is time to go home already.\u00a0 Instead of writing my \u201cpost\u201d at the end of my library stint as per my habit, I have decided to do it now.\u00a0 Switching gears will give my brain a change of pace.<\/p>\n
Overall, it was a reasonably productive week.\u00a0 I had to dig deep, but I forced myself to do some reading every night.\u00a0 Sometimes I only managed to do 30 minutes, but I feel that I am getting back into good habits so am pleased with my efforts. \u00a0I also engaged in email correspondence with my second supervisor.\u00a0 It is early days, but I feel very positive about her involvement in my dissertation journey for three reasons.\u00a0 First, her academic focus is aligned to my research interest.\u00a0 Second, she has long tenure at Henley.\u00a0 Finally, based on her bio, she has expertise in providing dissertation oversight. \u00a0\u00a0All of this bodes well for me and I am hoping that we can meet face to face in July.\u00a0 If not, we have agreed to use Skype to connect.<\/p>\n
My focus for today, as well as this week, continues to be a detailed review of a thesis on Transformational Leadership and Organization Performance.\u00a0 The research is really well written and has a structure that is easy to follow. \u00a0At this point, I understand about 40% of the statistical analysis, but the results are clear to me and I now have additional ideas for my research methodology.\u00a0 I have about 75 pages left to read as well as the Appendix so should be finished by next Saturday.\u00a0 I am going to try and send the researcher a note when I complete the review, he has been pivotal in helping me to emerge from the wilderness!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
