The practical implications of the author’s conclusions are that research into leadership can be challenging because of the emphasis on quantitative studies in the field and the sense that any new studies must innovative and unique, even though it can be quite challenging to obtain permission for studies like this (Bryman, 2011). One of the important take-aways from the author’s notes is that qualitative research should not be so despised by researchers because it can provide insightful understanding on the topic of leadership and thus an over-reliance on questionnaires and surveys could be limiting the field in terms of discovering new knowledge that could improve practices in the field of leadership.
An example that might clarify or support the author’s claim is not really given. Instead, the author focuses on supporting arguments with references to other authors and quoting those authors in full. This is why Abendstern et al. (2019) are quoted along with Munthe-Kass et al. (2019). These might have seen like scholarly examples used to support the author’s claim, but perhaps real world examples might have served the purpose better. For instance, instead of relying on other scholarly references to make a point, a simple example of what is meant could have served to bring home the essence of the conclusion. An example could have been something like: Researcher A wants to conduct a study on leadership using qualitative methods. Researcher B wants to research leadership using quantitative methods. Researcher A selects a case study approach and easily obtains permission to interview a leader of an organization that has been very successful in...…support the discussion and they include Johannesson (2010) and Sharpe and Poets (2020). However, they do appear to be rather tacked on as the full quotes used in the discussion come primarily from the Bryman source.
Nonetheless, the quotes are supportive and the evidence noted does support the author’s claim. There is no real need for additional scholarly support to validate what is stated in the writing. Bryman’s (2011) remarks are not inaccurate, and the discussion on each of the topics (except for the questionnaire studies) is supported by multiple scholarly references. Another reference could be used on the questionnaire studies paragraph, but that is the only place that one seems missing if one is going to look for diversity of sources.
There does not seem to be needed a different perspective on the author’s…

Critical Appraisal of Research Studies: Surgical Site Infections (SSI)Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a serious source of concern worldwide. They are not only a health risk to patients but also pose a significant risk in terms of an increase in antibiotic-resistant bacteria infections.

Leadership Over the decades, much research has been devoted to studying leadership traits and the qualities of an effective leader. Some of the approaches to assessing leadership include personality theory, as well as the qualitative approach to leadership research. In the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, (1988), D.K. Simonton used the personality basis of leadership research that looks at the effectiveness of a leader as a result of particular personality traits.
