- The goal of this is to design organizational interventions that help address real-world challenges, and then to evaluate, assess and test the effectiveness of those interventions, and to communicate the findings so that both the world of practice and the world of research can benefit. In this way, the DBA candidates generate new knowledge of the ultimate criterion for the award of a Doctoral degree.
