ASSIGNMENT

Begin work on Dissertation Proposal. This consists of the first three chapters of the dissertation. For the Dissertation Proposal, these chapters are to be written in the future or present tense (for the Dissertation Manuscript, these chapters will be rewritten in the past tense).

Submit Dissertation Proposal to dissertation chair for feedback, comments, and revisions. The candidate works with the dissertation chair until the draft Dissertation Proposal is ready for review by the SME. See information below for considerations regarding feedback procedures and turnaround time to be budgeted.

When the dissertation committee is satisfied with the Dissertation Proposal, the dissertation chair submits the completed Dissertation Proposal to the Graduate School for review.

Upon approval of the Dissertation Proposal, the candidate works with the chair to complete the Institutional Review Board (IRB) application for the Northcentral IRB committee to review. No data may be collected until the University IRB approves the research (this stipulation includes pilot data). Note: Violation of this rule may result in termination of the student’s affiliation with Northcentral. If satisfactory progress is made during the course, the Dissertation Chair posts a grade of S. If satisfactory progress is not made during the course, the Dissertation Chair will post a grade of U. When the Dissertation Proposal is approved, and the IRB application is approved, the candidate may move on to implement the research plan and proceed to the Doctoral Dissertation Research III course.

The purpose of this literature review section is to provide comprehensive information on the research available on the matter of micro-entrepreneurs’ perspectives towards micro-funding, and particularly, crowd funding, peer to peer lending and micro-financing. This research topic is important because it provides insight into the utilization of these micro-funding options by small and medium-sized business owners. Micro-funding has been a major part of the contemporary business society for a considerably long time now (Rabby et al., 2011). There has been extensive research into the concept as well as its concepts of, crowd funding, peer to peer lending and micro-financing. However, little research has been done concerning the actual perspectives of small and medium-sized business owners regarding micro funding. While it may be naturally presumed that these micro-entrepreneurs are wholly receptive towards the micro-funding options, this may not be the case for variable reasons. For instance, there may be micro-entrepreneurs who are unaware of the details of micro-funding and how it can be utilized effectively to help them in enhancing their business options and to avoid such undesirable realities of business like bankruptcy among others (Beugré, & Das, 2013). There may also be micro-entrepreneurs who are strongly opposed to the idea of micro-funding for different reasons.

All in all, this literature review section will provide sufficient information in relation to the research that has already been conducted by other credible researchers on the same topics so as to acquire a detailed overview of the situation related to micro-funding options and small and medium-sized business owners. Essentially, it provides comprehensive and generalized information based on the research and findings of others. Importantly, the information acquired from the literature review will be useful in helping to guide the direction of this particular research study.
