The participants were seven nonprofit leaders who successfully led teams cross-culturally in Mexico and the United States. Data were collected from semistructured interviews, direct observations, and organizational records. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data.

Delphi Study Of International Cybersecurity Norms, Kenneth J. Biskner
Delphi Study Of International Cybersecurity Norms, Kenneth J. Biskner
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Unregulated state cyberattacks are an urgent threat to international peace and security because of the costs they impose and the devastating effects they can create. However, international norms governing state cyberattacks (international cybersecurity norms) have not yet emerged. The lack of meaningful consequences for state cyberattacks, and the high rewards derived from them, incentivize states to engage in this new form of hostile conduct (cyberconflict). The problem addressed in this modified Delphi study was the persistent struggle between authoritarian and democratic states over competing international cybersecurity norms that cause cyberconflict to remain unregulated. Kingdon’s multiple streams framework was used as …

International Development Project Strategies To Reduce The Negative Impact Of Triple Constraints, Syreeta S. Bond
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
With the growing number of international development projects not meeting the triple constraint requirements every year, organizational leaders exceed their budgets and increase schedule delays. Some project managers lack strategies to minimize the negative impact of these constraints, resulting in projects that exceed their budgets and have more delays. Grounded in the theory of constraints, the purpose of this qualitative multiple-case study was to explore strategies project managers use to reduce the negative impact of the triple constraints of cost, schedule, and scope on international development projects. The participants were five project managers from five different global development companies. Data …

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Changes in customer expectations, technological advancement, and intense competition exacerbate uncertainty, and executives are motivated to develop strategies for implementing innovative solutions to gain a competitive advantage. Anchored in the conceptual lens of the resource-based view and transformational leadership theories, the purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to explore strategies five c-suite executives in The Commonwealth of The Bahamas used to remain competitive and profitable. Data were collected using semistructured interviews via Zoom videoconferencing, observations, human resource manuals, publicly available materials from government websites such as financial records, and journal notes. Through thematic analysis, five themes emerged: (a) …
