The ILA is pleased to partner with The Jepson School of Leadership Studies at the University of Richmond on the 2012 Fredric M. Jablin Doctoral Dissertation Award. This award is given annually to a scholar whose doctoral dissertation research, while on any topic and from any discipline, demonstrates substantial insights and implications for the study of leadership. The award was established to honor and celebrate the life of Dr. Fredric M. Jablin (1952-2004).
In order to be eligible for the award competition, a doctoral dissertation must be completed between August 1, 2010 and August 1, 2012. With the upcoming 20th anniversary of the Jepson School of Leadership Studies, instead of being honored at the ILA's annual global conference, the 2012 recipient will be honored at Jepson's 20th anniversary conference, Feb 1-2, 2013, where the recipient will be asked to present their doctoral dissertation research.
The recipient of the award will receive the following:
- $1,000 prize
- Registration & Travel expenses to Jepson's 20th Anniversary conference
- Complimentary one year membership to the ILA
- Complimentary conference registration to the 2013 or 2014 ILA global conference

When working on dissertation, the only thing that I remember is that when the expectations and reality conflict, it's my expectations that need adjusting. It's It's just like if I gave you a map of a city, one that you'd never been to, and you tried to tour the city with this map. But then, after a few minutes, you realized that the map wasn't lining up to the streets and pathways in front of you. The map said you needed to turn left, but there was no left turn there. The map said to go two blocks, but the road ended.
(hope you get what I just said)
