Disability and Authentic Leadership: A Qualitative Phenomenological Undergraduate Case Study
Anna L. Sinclair
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Indiana Wesleyan University
According to the Centers for Disease Control's (2020) current statistics, one in four adults, approximately 61 million Americans, or 26% of the U.S. population, have a pathologically diagnosed and classified disability. There are medical, moral, and social perspectives of disability that have evolved over time, creating certain stigmas and stereotypes of this minority community, including the university undergraduate disabled student population. Procknow et al. (2017) argued that authentic leadership aids in restoring the social experiences of the disabled community. This study will examine disabled undergraduates and their authentic leadership and relational transparency. The results could further improve positive organizational leadership.
