Abstract

I would like to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation to my dissertation committee for your commitment and dedication to my success. Dr. Margaret Sloan, thank you for being my mentor, my Advisor, and my Dissertation Committee Chair. Your insight and support have challenged me in ways that have helped to develop a strong nonprofit scholar. Dr. Karen Ford, thank you for always ensuring that strategic leadership is at the forefront of my mind and my studies. Dr. Jon Thompson, thank you for offering your expert advice, suggestions, and support. Dr. Tammy Eberly, thank you for coming out of retirement to offer your expertise and guidance. A special thank you also goes to Brooke Rhodes who encouraged me, allowed me to vent, and allowed me to debrief about all things "toddler" on days when I really need a listening ear. Thank you to all of my fellow SSLS students and alumni who encouraged and supported me in my classes and along my journey.
