Seeking Recently Separated or Retired Army Officers for Doctoral Research Study
Hello everyone,
My name is Dakota Shade, and I am a doctoral candidate at the University of Arizona Global Campus conducting a research study on leadership experiences, organizational attitudes, and intent to leave among U.S. Army officers.
I am currently seeking participants who are:
- Former or retired U.S. Army officers
- Separated or retired within the last 10 years
- Prior service: Active Duty, National Guard, or Reserve
The study examines how experiences with leadership and organizational culture may influence retention and separation decisions within the Army.
The survey is:
- Completely anonymous
- Voluntary
- Approximately 10–15 minutes long
- Does not collect names, unit information, or IP addresses
This research is being conducted strictly for academic purposes as part of my doctoral dissertation.
If you are interested in participating, please use the survey link below:

I would also greatly appreciate it if anyone is willing to share this with other former officers who may qualify.
Thank you all for your time and service.
Respectfully,
WO1 Dakota A. Shade
