Write a response paper in which you give your Leadership/Vision statement (which you practiced in the Discussions) and then discuss how you decided on your statement.  You can choose a brief statement (15 words) or develop your own mission, purpose, or value statement that best suits your leadership needs and aspirations.

Try and mimic slogans if you need brevity: We Try Harder, or Just Do It. Most of all, work to nail down a purpose that shows how you want to be a force for good in society. No one wants to be a super villain; explore the good you want to create.

In your paper be sure to provide a clear linkage to the concepts from the reading and at least the following learning objective: (LO3) Begin to apply the rhetorical tools of leadership in various situations and across various media.

Your paper should be one to two pages double-spaced and include a centered title. Any sources used should be properly cited in APA format.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
