Assignment: Small-Scale Qualitative Research Project

/in /by

Submit your completed Interview Guide, including the following components:

  • Primary Business Research Phenomenon
  • Research Question (Level 2)
  • Primary Research Goal(s)
  • Initial Probe Questions
  • Targeted Interview Questions (Level 1)
  • Targeted Follow-up Questions
  • Wrap-up Question

Note: Be sure to use the Interview Guide Template to complete this Assignment.

In Chapter 3 of his text, Yin (2018) referred to Level 1 and Level 2 questions when conducting case study research. Level 1 questions include specific interview questions, while Level 2 includes the overarching research question. Furthermore, well-crafted qualitative research questions are open-ended and typically restate the purpose of a study in specific terms. These questions should start with “what” or “how” instead of “why.”

To prepare for this Assignment, review the Small-Scale Qualitative Research Project: Interview Guide Template, provided in this week’s Required Readings, and consider what type of research questions to ask. Keep in mind that your research question (Level 2) for this Assignment should be one that can be answered, at least in part, by the Level 1 questions asked in each interview. Questions that provoke a yes/no response are not permitted in a Doctoral Study interview guide.

attached is my topic for my small scale project.

ample Interview Protocol

Specific Business Problem

Succinctly provide a specific business for a qualitative DBA study. See the Qualitative Alignment PowerPoint (slide 4) and the DBA Doctoral Study Rubric and Handbook (particularly the DBA Handbook)
Research Question

Succinctly provide a research question for a qualitative DBA study. See the Qualitative Alignment PowerPoint (slide 4) and the DBA Doctoral Study Rubric and Handbook (particularly the DBA Handbook)

Make certain that the research question aligns with the specific business problem and the interview questions below align with the research question.
Participant Criteria

Succinctly identify the participant criteria for the interview. Ensure that the interview participant criterial aligns with the research question.
What you will do

This column contains what the researcher will be doing in addition to asking the interview questions.

 What you will say—script

This column contains what you will say to the participant as you proceed through the interview. Note—that one will add probing questions as appropriate.
Introduce the interview and set the stage—often over a meal or coffee Script XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Reminders that you should do during the interview.

 

· Watch for nonverbal cues

· Paraphrase as needed

· Ask follow-up probing questions to get more in-depth data.

· Remember that qualitative researchers need deep and rich data. A one sentence short answer to the interview question may provide superficial data at best.

· Again, probe, probe, probe. Metaphorically dig deep for rich data.

 1. Interview question

Note: Qualitative research interview questions must be open-ended. One cannot use yes or no answerable questions.
  2. Interview question

Note: Qualitative research interview questions cannot be double barrel questions using an and/or. Questions One must ask two separate questions for questions that one would have preferred to use an and/or.
  3. Interview question

Note: DBA students must use applied business questions on how the business leader solved the business problem. One cannot ask theoretical PhD type questions (No why questions or what do you think should occur type questions). Please see the Qualitative Alignment PowerPoint for example questions.
  4. Interview question

Note: For qualitative interviews, one should use semistructured, non-structured, semiformal, non-formal, phenomenological long interviews, etc. One should never use structured questions (i.e., typical job interview type question) to obtain deep and rich data in a qualitative interview.
  5. Interview question

Note: The desired outcome of the interview (and follow-up member checking interview) is to obtain deep and rich data.
  6. Interview question

Note: Probing questions that follow up on a participant’s verbal or nonverbal response will help one obtain data beyond the superficial (press release type) response.
  7. Interview question

Note: Delete the notes placed in this column to help write qualitative interview questions. After the initial script above, this column should only have one’s interview questions.
  8. Interview question

The last interview question should be a wrap up question such as: What additional experiences have you had…(related to solving the business problem)?
Wrap up interview thanking participant Script XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Schedule follow-up member checking interview Script XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

1.Why are most healthcare providers able to charge different groups of purchasers different prices for the same products?

2.Price discrimination requires the ability to distinguish customers who are the most price- sensitive and the ability to prevent arbitrage (resale of your products by customers who buy at low prices). What attributes of healthcare products make these tasks easy to do?

3.Can you think of a healthcare firm that does not price discriminate (i.e., charge different customers different amounts for the same product)?

4.Your firm spent $100 million developing a new drug. It has now been approved for sale, and each pill costs $1 to manufacture. Your market research suggests that the price elasticity of demand in the general public is −1.

1.What price do you charge the public?

2.What would happen to profits if you charged twice as much?

3.What role does the $100 million in development costs play in your pricing decision?

4.The Medicaid agency has made a take-it-or-leave-it offer of $2 per pill. Do you accept? Why or why not?

Reading Assignment Chapter 9: Achieving Operational Excellence and Customer Intimacy: Enterprise Applications Chapter 10: E-Commerce: Digital Markets, Digital Goods

Unit Lesson Advanced Information Systems What exactly are advanced information system solutions? Most people who have worked in an office setting have a good understanding of the processes that affect their everyday lives. They understand that the data they enter or scan is stored in a database, and certain processes they run may close out a monthly account, process a payroll run, or bill a customer. These types of processes, while they seem separate, are often very integrated. In years past, organizations had large mainframes. These mainframes had to process transactions in batches, usually at night, and until that batch process happened, the screens you were viewing were not always completely correct. For example, you could place an order for a customer, but you would not see the order until the next day. Unfortunately, that also meant that you could not see the inventory reduction until the next day as well. This means you might place an order and there might not be any of that item left in stock at the time. A salesperson or customer service representative might have to go look at three or four different screens to get a good picture of the customer’s account health or to research a problem—even with this batching process. Once client-servers came to organizations, employees had to look at two completely different computers to research that same problem (until organizations could get all of their data and processes moved off of those old mainframes). Now that businesses have grown so much, many of them have multiple product lines, systems, servers, and databases. In the past, managers would have to wait for big printouts of various reports to make business decisions. Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems works to integrate all of those critical systems together so they can talk to each other. The applications that make up the enterprise software are created based on predefined best business practices. Think of it this way: When a business purchases a piece of equipment, that order is entered into accounting the same way for all businesses. If a customer makes a purchase, it should generally be handled the same way. When you hire someone, you have the same laws to follow. There may be some customization, but that is handled in the application as well (Laudon & Laudon, 2016). From a managerial perspective, what is the value in enterprise systems?

Title

This is the question we have to ask ourselves when adopting any sort of information systems solution, is it not? We do not just spend large amounts of money on something without understanding the value it offers us as a company. We have discussed the value of data in previous chapters. Among the other reasons enterprise systems bring us value, they also help us to have firm-wide information to make better decisions. The bottom line is this: Advanced information system solutions can help organizations in many different ways, such as operating more effectively and efficiently, making better decisions, managing our goods more effectively, reaching our customers faster, and being more competitive and innovative. Anyone can see the value in that!

What Are Some Other Advanced Information System Solutions? Supply chain management (SCM): Many large organizations (such as Walmart and Amazon) use supply chain management (SCM) to help their organization manage their suppliers and goods more efficiently. If you have thousands of suppliers and hundreds of thousands of orders, it would be impossible to keep up with everything. SCM software can manage all of this and allows for forecasting and decision making as well. Imagine that many of your suppliers are in other countries; this means you have a global supply chain that is even more complex to manage. Customer relationship management (CRM): Customer relationship management (CRM) involves managing customers. Again, if you have 50,000 customers, how do you keep up with what they purchased? Sure, you can store that information in a database but would it be easy to manage those relationships? How would you keep up with the marketing incentives you have offered them? Better yet, what about the marketing incentives that you want them to pass on to their customers? Systems application products (SAP): Systems application products (SAP) are a brand of enterprise resource systems. Oracle and Microsoft both have their own brands of enterprise resource systems as well. While all of these vendors offer very similar base functionalities, each of them compete against each other by bringing their own special capabilities to their enterprise resource system offerings. E-commerce: Another type of advanced information systems involves e-commerce. The explosion of Internet purchasing is no surprise to anyone, but the technology involved in e-commerce is pretty unique. In the past, retailers had pretty tight control over everything. The options for consumers were not plentiful. Still, word of mouth was still prevalent so a business could suffer if it did not treat its customers well. Now, retailers have invited the world to comment on their websites. Sure, they can always delete bad comments, but knowledge is power. Have you ever had a bad experience at a store and wondered if it ever got past the customer service person that you complained to? E-commerce gives retailers global reach, which can be an advantage and a disadvantage. Advanced information systems have given retailers the ability to allow customers to interact with each other through social media-style functionality. Retailers can now personalize your viewing experience based on your web searches. This type of customer targeting was not possible before more advanced information systems were developed. We have discussed business-to-consumer (B2C) e-commerce, but there have also been many types of e- commerce, e-commerce business models, and e-commerce revenue models developed. Social media is one of the most predominant focuses of marketing today. Another focus of late is m-commerce, which is mobile commerce. One of the biggest boons to business-to-business e-commerce is the development of electronic data interchange (EDI). This service enables the transfer of data between two organizations. For example, an organization may receive an electronic bill from a supplier through EDI. Conversely, the organization can sent a notice of payment back to the supplier via EDI. An organization can send all of its UPS shipping information to UPS in the form of an EDI file. Would any of this be possible without advanced information system solutions? What do you think the future holds for information systems and technology as businesses grow bigger and bigger?
