Final Paper

First: You should send me an email that clearly identifies the challenge within the organization. You do not merely send an email stating “The challenge I want to write about is leadership”. That does not tell me anything. What is the organization and what exactly about leadership is the challenge? If you cannot write that in an email then you are unclear yourself about the challenge. You only identify “one” challenge. Make sure you know how the leadership previously attempted to handle the challenge and then understand you will then be required to discuss in the final paper your recommendations on how it could have been done better using theories, models, etc. learned from your program/this course. Keep this in mind when identifying a topic

Second: This is not a story, it is not written in the first person. See the specifics below in the template which you must use to write this paper. Just because the assignment allows you to write about a challenge in your organization does not mean you write in the first person.

Third: This is not about the organization did a great job and no improvements. That will not satisfy the requirements for the paper. So if the organization did such a great job at handling it, then think about a challenge the organization did not handle well and write about that. Remember, per the scoring rubric you need to have sources in your paper that relate to theory to support your recommendations.

 You need to clearly identify and address each of the elements of the assignment so that means you need APA headings. Please note, that while the “research paper” example in the APA Style Standards does not include APA section headings, you will also find in the APA Style Standards at https://awc.ashford.edu/cd-formatting-headings%20in-apa-style.html the instructions on how to include APA section headings. APA section headings are required in this class for your papers. Notice that the instructions have an area that reads:
