Global / Multicultural Leadership

 

In an essay format, please write about your newly developed definition of leadership.  Please proof read and spell check your work.  Errors in spelling and grammar will cause points to be deducted at .3 per error.  Please use and credit all cited sources in the body of the text and with a reference list at the end (APA style).   All documents must be completed/submitted in Microsoft Word.

 

There is no minimum/maximum number of words. Use 12 -point font and double space. These essays usually run from 6 – 10 double spaced pages.  You must be thorough in covering the points of the essay. Be sure to cover the points below and weave them together in a narrative as opposed to a chopped-up, list of bulleted responses.
