Discussion Question 

In essence, the theoretical foundation comprises the structure for the dissertation. It serves as an aid for developing and supporting the dissertation. Besides, the theory does provide not only the scheme but also an interpretation from which to support the rationale of the problem as well as data analysis. It is usually accomplished by citing current theories that relate to the dissertation topic. As such, the theoretical foundation aims to incorporate the findings and views of other researchers on a specific study topic to support a particular research focus

Besides, the two theories that will comprise the theoretical foundation of my study are Boundary-Breaking Leadership Development Model and the Educational administration theory. Boundary-Breaking Leadership Development Model can be used to demonstrate the operation ability of cross-cultural students in leadership development programs (Robertson & Webber, 2000). As such, it would help support my study topic. The Educational Administration theory states that particular principles should be followed in cross-cultural leadership development of students (Evers, 2000). Therefore, the approach will support the research topic by showing the link between administration and leadership development in cross-cultural students.
