Humanities

5 pages double spaced paper, APA format with subheadings.

You are required to complete a research paper that will constitute the Course Project. The purpose of the paper is to afford you the opportunity to demonstrate research, writing, and critical thinking skills in the area of leadership. For your Final Research Paper, you will synthesize, evaluate, and apply concepts, theories, and strategies related to leadership and organizational change. Throughout this course, you will complete surveys and questionnaires contained in the course text. You will save the results of these surveys and questionnaires, and for the Final Research Paper, you will summarize and analyze your results. The surveys and questionnaires will help you discovery how each leadership approach and theory relates to your personal leadership style.

For the Final Project you will:

• Analyze your leadership style in your own words without referring to the approaches or theories you studied. Describe an example from your own experience, or one in which you are familiar, to support your analysis.

• Determine which leadership approach or theory you studied most closely resembles your own leadership style. Using an example from your own experience, or one in which you are familiar; explain how this leadership approach or theory resembles your style.

• Describe which leadership approach or theory you studied that you would most like to adopt. Explain why you selected this particular approach or theory.

• Describe steps that you can take to more closely align your personal leadership style with the one you wish to adopt. If the leadership approach is the same as your own, describe steps you can take to enhance your leadership style.

• Select three other approaches or theories you have studied that you would not want to adopt. Explain why you would not want to adopt these specific approaches or theories. •

Research the database or the Internet and find an article that discusses organizational change.

Describe the leadership approaches or theories that you would use if you were responsible for guiding the organization in the article through its changes. Explain your reasons. Do not report specific scores from the questionnaires. You should only provide specific answers. For example, do not report specific ethical issues in the Leadership Ethics section; instead be aware of whether you need to work on ethical issues in general.

The Final Research Paper is for you to report what you have learned throughout the course and how you can apply it to your leadership philosophy. Your Final Research Paper should be 5 pages double spaced. Be sure to support your arguments with specific references to the Learning Resources and any outside research.

I have attached the final guidelines, the article and additional sources( leadership styles) that are needed for the assignment as well as Perceived Leader Integrity Scale about my own beliefs about ethics. Include the results in the Final Research Paper. Also the course chapter for that survey is attached.

The assignment should be in APA and have sub heading so I know each question has been answered!!!
