To work in the field of leadership and human resource development, individuals need to possess a diverse skillset which includes effective communication needed to create partnerships, convey messages, solve problems, and lead organizations. In today’s highly globalized world in which communication is a means of bridging distances, the emphasis on effective written communication is greater than ever. Thus, as future leaders, you will be required to develop and nurture your writing skills and demonstrate them through written assignments throughout this course.
It is expected that all written materials submitted in this course will be organized in a logical manner and be written in clear and understandable language. Submitted papers should be free of typographical, spelling, and grammatical errors, as these will influence your grade. Students should follow the Grading Rubrics and Written Assignment Preparation Guidelines provided by the instructor to ensure that they communicate their ideas effectively in writing.
Additionally, students should make sure their written responses are not based on personal opinions. It is expected that written assignments will include references which will support the students’ claims. When choosing references, students should make sure they cite reliable resources. Students are advised to use online resources available via LSU Libraries, but are not limited to materials available there. It is imperative that students cite the resources they used and include all works cited in the list of references.Note: Students should follow APA guidelines for citations; however, it is also required to include page number for every reference to the textbook, regardless of whether a direct citation is used or not. This will help the instructor evaluate the understanding of key concepts from the textbook. You should include at least one reference to the textbook for each question.
All written assignments should follow APA guidelines, thus should:
• Be double-spaced
• Use 12-point Times New Roman font
• Have 1-inch margins on all sides
