Hi!
I am a graduate student at Washington State University, and am conducting a research project about the communication styles of female expatriate managers. My interest stems from being a trailing spouse to a military person. I’m interested in understanding female employees’ experiences as they negotiate their overseas transitions. May I interview you?

Your name will not be attached to your responses. Pseudonyms will be used in the tape transcripts (tapes will be destroyed at completion of study). Others will only see the data in summary form (that is, a summary of everyone who participates) or as selected comments without your name attached. The phone interview is short, and should take only about half an hour of your time, at your convenience. Please contact me if you are willing to be interviewed: jscott5@wsu.edu or jscott922@yahoo.com.

Thank you for your time and consideration!
Joy Scott
