Application

You will write an 8 page research paper (not including cover page or references) that captures relevant theories and empirical research leading to a significant synthesis and analysis of week 4 annotations (you may also include any other annotations that are relevant from weeks 1 and 2). Within your research paper you should seek to categorize, synthesize, and analyze theme (or themes) in the reviewed literature around the topic of leadership.

Approach your topic as though you were arguing for funding which might support a vital new step in understanding the changing face of global leadership. While you do not have to actually design a study to the point of specifying research measures of intercultural leader and group behaviors or specify samples, try to evolve your thinking to the point of framing a relevant research topic, problem and question(s) for research to address. This question should be complete enough to suggest why the answers obtained further develop an important theory, address a gap in current models of global and multicultural leadership, or demonstrate an immediate application to solving common organizational problems. Rather than attempting to include as many references as possible, try to emphasize the logical coherence of your evidence of conceptual foundations. Build a rhetorical argument for why your research problem and question(s) are important.

An obvious extension of your paper would be to consider using it as a springboard for a dissertation proposal. Your paper could also be useful for the development of Chapter 2 of your Proposal/Dissertation.
Your literature review should include the following elements:

Adherence to APA format (6th Edition), which requires a title page, an abstract, a reference list, and appropriate sections and their headings.

A thorough review of the literature that shows evidence of a potential research opportunity or gap.

Presentation of a clearly defined gap in the research, with a focus on what has and has not been discussed in the academic literature.

The definition of a viable topic for dissertation research (using the aforementioned identified gap as a basis).

A draft problem statement included in your conclusion section.

At least one research question that is demonstrably linked to your problem statement. You do not need to address any hypotheses or design considerations and should include this question in your conclusion section.
