Help Shape the Future of Nonprofit Leadership

I’m excited to share that I’m researching nonprofit leadership in Saudi Arabia and Australia as part of my PhD studies. I’m seeking experienced nonprofit Executive Recruiters, CEOs, and Chairpersons from both countries who would be willing to participate in a 45 to 60-minute interview.

Here are the top exciting questions my research aims to answer:

How do Saudi Arabia and Australia’s nonprofit leaders acquire different forms of resources?
How does family upbringing (socialization within the family) influence the advancement and success of nonprofit leaders in Saudi Arabia and Australia?
How are non-profit leaders selected for leadership positions?
How does the selection process differ from the for-profit sector?
What I’m asking for:

I’m inviting nonprofit executive recruiters, Chairpersons, and CEOs with experience working in Australia to share their insights and perspectives on these topics.

What participation involves:

Executive Recruiters and chairs would participate in a 45-—to 60-minute interview, while CEOs would participate in a 90-minute interview conducted via Zoom or another preferred platform at a convenient time. Your input will contribute valuable insights that can inform academic research and real-world nonprofit practices.

How participants will be ‘rewarded’:

While participation does not result in a monetary reward, your contributions will be acknowledged in the research findings, and you’ll have the opportunity to advance knowledge in the nonprofit sector.

How to contact me:

If you’re interested in participating or know someone who might be, please feel free to contact me directly here on LinkedIn. You can also contact my PhD advisor, Miriam Yates, at m.yates@uq.edu.au or my associate advisor, Tim Reddel, at tim.reddel@uq.edu.au.
