I wish to express my gratitude to my committee members Dr. David Rigoni and Dr. Michael Porter for their input and early encouragement to pursue this dissertation topic. I owe a deep and special thanks to my committee chair Dr. Don LaMagdeleine, whose guidance, patience, and insights buoyed my spirits and helped me get unstuck (often) throughout this work. I would also like to thank the members of Cohort 23, many of whom endured drafts of some of my earliest, and least focused, musings that would later inform this study. Your early support and feedback helped me more than you can ever know. Finally, this entire study would never have been possible without the tremendous support, patience, and sacrifice of my best friend and wife, Crystal. Throughout the course of this journey, we were also blessed with our children Ella and Zachary—I am forever indebted to each of you for the missed evenings and weekends when I was buried in a seemingly endless list of books and papers. Dedication This study is dedicated to the employees and executives at Icarus in appreciation for granting me the privilege of listening to, and being part of, their individual stories.
