Summation Paper Assignment Instructions
Overview
The Summation Paper Assignment tests the student’s ability to look at three groups; leadership, management, and followership, and how these three groups’ collaboration efforts are affected in their place of employment or have been affected in one of their previous places of employment. The student will use the concepts learned throughout the course to propose how changes in management and leadership styles could improve their current employment situation, or a previous employment situation. Some factors that should be considered are stress, replenishment, handling crises, selflessness, integrity, courage, wisdom, authority, responsibility, accountability, teamwork, vision, power types, ethics, communication differences, style of leaders or managers, lack of biblical beliefs, etc., or other factors that were discussed during the term. Whereas many of these concepts can affect leadership, management, and followership groups and their collaboration efforts, students will select 3-5 factors that the student believes had the most impact from their experience. These factors will be discussed in detail in the summation.
