Dear friends and associates:

I invite you to take a short survey on personal authenticity. I’m exploring the relationship between personal authenticity and conflict behavior; this online survey represents the final research project toward my Master’s degree. It will take you approximately 10 minutes to complete.

Participation is this survey is fully voluntary and all responses will be recorded anonymously. As an incentive, the first twenty respondents will be invited to a free, one-day workshop in Atlanta related to the survey’s theme (you’ll be invited to email me directly following the survey, to ensure all survey responses are anonymous).

To participate in the survey, go to this URL: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=432042441202

The survey will be available until September 20, 2006 at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time.

This study has been accepted by the Kennesaw State University Institutional Review Board for the Protection of Human Subjects. For more information or concerns about this protection, please contact Dr. Martha E. Myers at mmyers@kennesaw.edu. For any questions or concerns related to the survey, please contact my faculty advisor, Dr. Timothy Hedeen at tkhedeen@kennesaw.edu.

Please feel free to pass this invitation along to others, as more responses will facilitate more meaningful research findings. Thank you for your consideration.

Judy Glick-Smith
