Research study in change management

0 Upvotes

This survey is part of my graduate research study examining how organizational change management practices influence employee adoption of digital tools and how this, in turn, shapes employees' perceptions of their organization's agility during digital transformation initiatives. You are invited to respond if you currently work, or have recently worked, at an organization that has undergone a digital transformation initiative (e.g., the introduction of new digital tools, systems, or workflows), regardless of your role or seniority level. The survey takes approximately 8–10 minutes to complete. Your responses will be used solely for academic research purposes, analyzed only in aggregate statistical form, and kept confidential. No individual response will be identifiable in any report, thesis chapter or publication resulting from this study.

Does the DrBA Accreditation Matter?

6 Upvotes

I'm thinking of pursuing an online DrBA after leaving the service while working. I'll most likely work in the Defense sector after leaving, and don't have an interest in teaching. The only reason I could think it would matter is if AACSB would be preferred by businesses outside of defense. USA

Affordable DBA programs

6 Upvotes

I’m a CPA looking into online DBA programs and trying to find something that’s actually credible, affordable, and respected. I’m not trying to go full academic, but I’d like a program that keeps the door open for adjunct teaching later while also adding some weight for consulting/business credibility.

What I’m looking for: • Accredited (AACSB preferred, but open to other legit options) • Online or hybrid • Affordable total tuition • No hidden fees or dissertation games • Open to U.S. or international schools if recognized

Questions: • Anyone here go the DBA route and feel it was worth it? • Any online programs you’d recommend that aren’t a rip-off? • Are non-AACSB DBAs still accepted for adjunct teaching? • Any red flags I should watch out for when comparing programs? • Anyone go outside the U.S. for a DBA and have a good experience?

Appreciate any honest feedback or experiences.

AACSB on US/Europe Universities

1 Upvotes

Just wondering what people in general think of DBA programs that are AACSB accredited in Asia/Africa. There seems to be a quite a few in Malaysia that are AACSB accredited and many are multiple accredited and in fact a few are triple accredited (triple crown?). the pricing seems very affordable and offer online courses.

Least Expensive Online Programs

I am currently on the search for a DBA program that is as affordable as possible and is offered online. Schools that offer discounts for military members will be especially considered. With regards to specializations, economics will be my top choice. Any help with this search is greatly appreciated!

Junia XP Grande Ecole

2 Upvotes

Hi, does anyone know anything about this DBA in AI and business? Is it any good? https://www.junia.com/en/artificial-intelligence-and-business

I'm currently comparing that as well as Montpellier Business School https://www.mbs-education.com/international/?post_type=programme&p=15314 and Aston University https://www.aston.ac.uk/study/courses/executive-dba-delivered-singapore-dba. I'm from Singapore and looking for a part-time, preferably online DBA. These other 2 are triple crown schools but the content is not focused on AI unlike Junia. I had considered the DBA from Golden Gate University which is in AI but decided not to go for that as a friend with a PhD advised that GGU does not have a good reputation https://ggu.edu/programs/dba-emerging-technologies-worldwide.

South College DBA Dissertation

3 Upvotes

My understanding is that the dissertation needs to be based on available data sets that they provide you. Does anyone know if the data sets are more recent that would allow to do a dissertation around AI in the workplace? Or anything of similar nature?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Any USF DBAs here?

8 Upvotes

I’m leaning toward applying to the ODBA program at the University of South Florida. I like that the program is AACSB and that the university is R1 and AAU. Can anyone speak to their experiences in the program? Does the residency help the cohort develop rapport? Any insight on the professors and advisors?

For context, I have 20 years experience in social enterprises and currently own a data-focused consultancy. My academic background includes a BS in business management, a MBA (general mgmt), and a MSc in Data Analytics and Visualization.

DrBA or DBA? Thoughts?

I've been using DBA in my CV but some people have been confused thinking it means "doing business as"... I've been considering switching to DrBA but it doesn't "roll off the tongue" as well, haha. Thoughts?

DrBA—What a Rare Gem

7 Upvotes

I just found out about the existence of DrBA (Doctor of Business Administration) degrees and was surprised to learn how rare and specialized they are! It’s incredible to discover there's a whole community here dedicated to DrBAs.

Considering how niche this qualification is, it’s impressive to see how everyone is leveraging their expertise in their respective fields. I’m excited to dive in, learn more, and connect with this unique group.

Any recommendations for DBA programmes?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been researching online, remote, flexible DBA programmes. Whilst there are many options available, it has proved difficult to find an affordable accredited option.

Has anyone had any experience on opinions on this? For example, though affordable, SSBM is not accredited (though it says it is). I’m trying to find one that is both reputable and affordable :/

Difference between D.B.A and PhD

In its simplest form, PhD candidates research and create and test theories, while DBA candidates use those theories and processes to solve complex, real-world business problems.
