Abstract
In this chapter we will outline the design and methods of the study in more detail. In Section 2.1 we will present (1) the framework and (2) our research questions and subsequently in Section 2.2 we will shed light on to our methodology, that is, our means of data collection (direct interviews, self-completion questionnaires) and analysis (content analysis and statistical techniques). Finally in Section 2.3 we will describe our sample across a variety of characteristics such as industries covered, the location of headquarters, listings, and so on.
