Description

This study focused on understanding the multiple transitions of the presidential office from the perspective of three categories of internal stakeholders: cabinet members, faculty members, and professional staff. The case study method was utilized to explore a deeper understanding of complex issues of multiple presidential transitions (McMillan & Schumacher, 2001). Six internal stakeholders (administrators, faculty, and professional staff) from a single college were interviewed to ascertain their perspectives regarding the repeated presidential turnover which occurred during a five year period.
