In Unit VII of this course, you will submit a research paper concerning a leadership theory and how it is applied in the workforce. In the finished paper, you will evaluate leadership roles and strengths, analyze the leadership theory you chose, evaluate leadership behavior and motivation, analyze leader influence, analyze research in leadership, demonstrate how leadership skills are used, and compare and contrast how leadership approaches are used to lead organizational learning and change.

Later in this course (Unit V), you will submit a literature review focusing on relevant literature related to your leadership theory and its application.

For this assignment, you are asked to conduct a search of the different leadership theories (trait, behavioral, contingency, and contemporary) and identify a theory that draws your interest and that you would be interested in exploring for the literature review and final research paper. You can review these theories in the textbook and do additional research in the Waldorf Online Library. The first step involves choosing, exploring, and focusing on a topic. Write a one-page project topic paper discussing why you chose your theory. Include the following components in your research paper topic.

Discuss how you think your theory can be applied where you currently work or in a position you would like to hold in the future.

Discuss how your theory can be applied to improve organizational behavior and increase diversity in organizations.

List at least two possible research questions you could investigate concerning application of your theory.

Your research paper topic should be at least one page in length, not including the title and references pages, which are required as part of this assignment. You are required to use at least two outside sources, one of which must come from the Waldorf Online Library. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying APA citations.
