Case Study Methodology & Design: A Scholar-Practitioner Perspective has been developed to inform researchers and students who may be interested in pursuing case study design for future research projects. As a management consultant, Dr. Mather uses the case study approach when working with new large, organizational clients who are attempting to implement a large-scale organizational change project. She discusses these parallels with academic research to provide a preliminary overview as to when to use, the strategy for planning the design, several other important design considerations, an example of a "made-up" study for illustration purposes, titles of several past University of Phoenix dissertations using case studies.
