Theory can offer many things to the researcher. It can be used to explain phenomena, generate hypotheses and suggest additional directions for research. In turn, the results from research can be used to refine existing theory.
A clear theoretical framework arising from the literature, such as management theory, leadership theory or change theory, can be used to guide your research, including your choice of research design and methodology.

In your follow-on responses, provide constructive critiques of your colleagues' choices of theoretical framework(s) and suggest additional theories they might consider.
