Abstract

Upon graduation, new doctors of education (EdD), scholar-practitioners typically hold influential positions as university professors, executive managers, and corporate leaders. These fledgling doctors of education springboard into the competitive workforce armed with uniquely designed concepts of leadership and social fairness. No binding commonality of professional oath exists to provide general moral and ethical guidance to influence and nourish societal benefit. Meanwhile, McFarlane and Orgazon (2011) report that economic growth and wealth accumulation remain primary motives to pursue higher academic degrees.
