[SOLVED] Research in Ethics
OVERVIEWThe Research Paper assignment is an examination of ethical leadership encompassing the range of complex issues, constructs, forces, and worldviews that influence the contemporary leader. The purpose is for you to develop and present your unique concept of the ethical leader by assessing, describing, supporting, and presenting those elements considered most critical within the limits of a 9- page scholarly paper. This assignment incorporates self-evaluation and thoughts about how these concepts may be applied as you analyze theories and construct solutions using sound ethical, reasoning, and Christian worldview frameworks.INSTRUCTIONSThe Research Paper must be in APA format with 9 pages in the body plus a cover page, abstract, and references page. Keeping the paper within the range is part of the challenge of scholarly writing. No less than 6 sources in addition to any course textbooks should be referenced.

All referenced material must be properly cited and listed on the references page.Be sure to follow all APA standards including double-space, Times New Roman 12-point or other APA approved font, 1-inch margins, no contractions or unnecessary (non-heading) bolding. Use proper APA headings to improve readability as you see fit.When developing your essay, some examples of (but not the only) areas you may want to consider would be: What forces influence and challenge the leader? How are ethical dilemma addressed? What is the impact of globalization and complexity? How do reasoning and ethical foundations guide the leader? Where is a Biblical worldview used and evident in ethical leadership? What social responsibilities and cultural citizenship issues must be considered? Are there cultural pressures that challenge ethical leadership? How might ethical leaders promote ethical organizational culture? What impact does ethical leadership have on organizational performance? How is ethical leadership related to other popular leadership theories?Be sure to incorporate Self-Assessment 11.2 which evaluates your perspective of whether a covenant relationship exists with your employer. If you do not have an employer, use an organization or situation with which you are familiar.IMPORTANT: The final section of the paper must be a page or less discussion of how your description of the ethical leader aligns with your own past, your current ethical leadership practices, and your aspirations for future leadership practices.Read: Damer: Chapter 9Read: Johnson: Chapter 11, Self-Assessment 11.2PageRead: Johnson: Chapter 11, Self-Assessment 11.2Read: Koukl: Chapters 22 25PageRead: Koukl: Chapters 22 25
