About the Author
Dr. Carol R. Himelhoch received her PhD from the University of Michigan. She is a Professor of Management and Organizational Behavior at Siena Heights University in Adrian, Michigan. Her management experience spans Tier 1 automotive manufacturing operations, marketing, advertising, and retail management. Carol contributes to the field of management by publishing in peer-reviewed journals and speaking at management and leadership conferences. Carol has been active in consulting since the mid-1980s. She has been an avid HIIT athlete since 2005. Dr. Carol's first book "Transformational Leadership and High-intensity Interval training" was an exploratory study of how leaders who participate in high-intensity interval training perceive the influence of HIIT on their leadership styles. She is back at it again, this time in a quantitative follow-up study of 189 leaders at all managerial levels, and at all levels of exercise from none at all to very high intensity. Her follow-up study also includes subordinate perceptions of their leaders to minimize leader self-report biases. Her recent research culminates in the discovery of nuanced factors in the relationship between exercise and leadership.
Dr. Mary Antonaros Raymond earned her PhD at the University of Michigan in 2010. She is an Associate Professor of Professional Communication and Coordinator of the Professional Communication Major at Siena Heights University. She has conducted research as well as published and presented papers on topics related to leadership for over 14 years, with special emphases on gender differences in leadership style and the influence on leader effectiveness as well as the influence of exercise on leadership styles and leader effectiveness.
