Hello,
My name is Lorie Plegue, I am a current doctoral student working on my dissertation. I have chosen a topic that exposes what a whistleblower endures and if there is any policies in organizations for protecting the whistleblower. The question I will answer through this process is “What is the impact on the employee who blew the whistle due to unethical or illegal acts in the organizations”? I am looking for whistleblowers who blew the whistle in organizations due to unethical or illegal behaviors in the past 10 years and are willing to tell their story that will be completely confidential.
All respondents and organizations will be kept private. No names, places, addresses, telephone numbers, email address or any other information that will tie or lead to the discovery of the interviewee will be used in the reporting process of the dissertation. A letter of confidentiality and instructions will be given to every interviewee. The interview will take place by phone. All interviews will be at a set time and date. I am looking forward to talking to anyone who will participate in a survey that may help organizations to change and/or strengthen policies to protect the whistleblower.
Please feel free to call me or email me for further information.
