Respondents Needed for Study of Impressions of Competency in the Workplace

As one part of my Ph.D. program at TUI University I am conducting an organizational behavior study to validate and improve a newly developed questionnaire. Your participation will help to provide scholars and practicing managers with an instrument for measuring impressions of competency in the workplace (i.e., 'Social norms of showing competency in the workplace').

A link to this web-based survey is listed below. This survey will take approximately 3 minutes to complete. Your replies will be strictly confidential and you may choose to stop the survey at any time. This survey is voluntary.

Your time is valuable and in appreciation for your effort you will be offered a chance of winning a prize. After completing the survey, you will have an opportunity to enter your email address into a drawing to win $100 American Express gift certificate. The winner will be announced a week after the survey is closed.

This study requires as many respondents as possible. If you know of others in the field or friends and family that would be equally qualified and interested, please pass this invitation onto them. I would greatly appreciate your help.

If you have any questions or comments about this study, you can contact me at 1-917-239-4045, email jhaber@tuiu.edu, or reach Dr. Stephen Fitzgerald, the Dissertation Chair, at sfitzgerald@tuiu.edu.
