I am a first-year PhD student at the University of Cape Town. My dissertation explores the cultural influences on leadership styles in African organizations. I plan to use qualitative methods, but I’m unsure about the best approaches for data collection and analysis. What techniques should I consider?

For qualitative data collection, consider methods such as interviews, focus groups, ethnographic studies, and document analysis. Ensure that you have a well-defined protocol for conducting these methods. For analysis, use techniques like thematic analysis, coding, and narrative analysis to identify patterns and insights in your data. Software tools like NVivo or Atlas.ti can help organize and analyze qualitative data systematically.
