"This book addresses foundational areas of qualitative writing (such as journal articles and dissertations), aesthetic representations (including poetry and autoethnography), publishing, and reflexivity in representation in one practical and engaging text based on real experiences. Author Maria K.E. Lahman draws on her experiences as a qualitative research professor and writing instructor, and as someone who has published widely in scholarly journals, employing both traditional and more innovative forms of writing. The first part of the book covers writing tips; how to represent data; how to write a qualitative thematic journal article; how to write a qualitative dissertation; and provides guidance on the publication process. The second part encourages the qualitative researcher to move beyond traditional forms of writing and consider how qualitative research can be represented more aesthetically: as poems, autoethnographies, and visually. The book concludes with a chapter on reflexivity in research representations. Throughout, the author provides vivid examples from her own work, and that of graduate students and colleagues"--

Within our writing, we define our framework as a model for practice that can be used by people within the organization: these could be leaders, colleagues, researcher-practitioners, and evaluators to improve practice and solve problems in context. The book is about providing support for the thousands of people in organizations who are tasked with finding and solving problems, whether they are formal internal evaluators or not.

Finally, the described model serves as the foundation upon which all other chapters' contents have been developed"--
