Handbook of Mixed Methods Research in Business and Management

Edited by Roslyn Cameron, Director of the Centre for Organisational Change and Agility (COCA), Torrens University Australia and Xanthe Golenko, Adjunct Research Fellow, Griffith University, Griffith Business School, Australia

‘This Handbook is both timely and comprehensive. I have previously sought such material for scholars that provides both a rationale and methodology for conducting MMR, especially given the potential for this approach to strengthen support for research findings. In addition to discipline specific foci, project management and case study examples this book includes much more making it highly recommended for libraries, researchers and research focused courses.’
