OR

1. You are the new union representative leading a team in its negotiations with, Sunny Side Up an international solar energy corporation,  You are aware that, historically, over 90% of disputes regarding an existing agreement between labor and management are resolved by arbitration (rather than the courts); the decision to use arbitration rather than the courts must be included in any contract to be binding.

Most organizations have some sort of vision or mission statement that guides its members and focuses their work. These statements help keep the organization on track and pointed toward clearly articulated goals. A written leadership philosophy achieves the same thing on a personal level: it lets people around you know what you expect, what you value, and how you’ll act. Additionally, it acts as a compass to help keep you, the leader, on course. In essence, your leadership philosophy will make public your understanding of who you are as a leader.

As a student of leadership studies, it is important for you to be familiar with leadership theories and acquainted the work of leadership scholars. Demonstrate your familiarity with these scholars and their theories by citing their work in your Leadership Philosophy Paper. Here are a few examples of how this can be done… use the work of leadership scholars to support:

  • Your definition of leadership.
  • Your assertions of the importance of leadership.
  • The importance and effectiveness of the leadership skills and traits you exhibit
  • The need for a clearly articulated vision
  • The importance of goals

Is it or is it not in the best interest of the people to have unelected officials in these positions of power?

 Is it or is it not in the best interest of the people to have unelected officials in these positions of power?

Unelected Officials

One branch of the American government, Congress, is made up of individuals elected by the people. Another branch of our government, the Presidency, is held by an elected official, but the majority of the members of the Presidential Cabinet are appointed to their positions (with the approval of Congress). The third branch of the government, the Judiciary, is made up of individuals who were all chosen by a President (though approved by Congress). Is it or is it not in the best interest of the people to have unelected officials in these positions of power?

·  Write a 500-750 word, APA style paper, exploring the distribution of power in the American federal government, and whether or not you believe it can effectively represent the will and the interests of the people it is meant to serve.

·  In your paper, explain your position and include the opposing position along with your rebuttal (of that opposing position).

·  Note: A rebuttal is a form of evidence that is presented to contradict other evidence that has been presented by an adverse party.

·  Include a title page and 3-5 references.  (not Wikipedia).

Research Paper which will provide an in-depth and detailed chronological history of homeland security before it was considered homeland security.

Research Paper which will provide an in-depth and detailed chronological history of homeland security before it was considered homeland security.

The student will complete a Research Paper which will provide an in-depth and detailed chronological history of homeland security before it was considered homeland security. In other words, describe what use to be in place for homeland security from the founding of the country up to when it became about civil defense. This section might be brief. Then cover the civil defense period in more detail. Finally, cover the period from 9/11 forward. Another way of viewing this timeline is from the founding to WWII, then post WWII to 9/11, then forward. Be sure to discuss emergency management (mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery issues) and homeland security (same as emergency management subtopics but also national security strategies, intelligence, counterterrorism, etc.). There is much to be covered in each time period: legal framework, policy development, Acts, laws, Preparedness directives, executive orders, and case law, etc. Consider the founding fathers and their documents as well. Consider Biblical foundations as well. The student will write at minimum a 5-full page research-oriented paper in current APA format.
