Description
Summary:I designed the [Grounded Theory] troubleshooting seminar to help candidates complete their dissertations. Candidates have many questions that need answering when doing a GT dissertation to get it moving and finished. The seminar focuses on exactly where the candidate is and tries to move him/her to the next step. Problem coverage is achieved by participant-candidates listening to the troubles of eleven other participant-candidates, and after listening, then engaging in an extensive free and open discussion of all the participants' views of what to do within the GT procedural framework. Of course, I keep the discussion, as best I can, on track and guided by GT procedures. The freedom to talk openly about the problems is often hard to control, BUT always very helpful to the candidate whose particular problem is being considered.
