Justification Report Assignment
$17.50In Assignments 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3, you will be building up a formal, researched justification report (one part at a time) that culminates in a recommendation to implement a particular product, service, or program in your place of employment. This recommended product, service, or program should resolve a problem that you identify in your workplace and should be directed to your employer (even if you do not actually plan to share it with your employer).
Use the basic outline below to draft your paper. Organize your responses to each question under the following section headings:
- Problem Statement (for Question 1)
- Overview of Alternatives (for Question 2)
- Criteria (for Question 3)
- Methods (for Question 4)
Using the provided template, write Part 1 of a single-spaced report in which you:
- Describe in detail a problem at work, persuading and convincing the reader that it needs fixing.
- Provide a detailed description of two (2) possible solutions (“alternatives”) that could be implemented to resolve the problem identified in Question 1.
- Describe five (5) criteria that you will use to measure the worth of each alternative in Criterion 2. Note: The alternative that satisfies the most criteria to the highest degree will be the one you recommend later to your employer. Criteria are standards that the audience values and are therefore used to measure the worth of each alternative (common examples include cost, desirability, durability, efficiency, time it will take to implement, and practicality).
- Describe in detail how you will conduct the research needed to determine the best recommended alternative to your employer.
Your assignment must:
- Be typed, single spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
- Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, your name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

Reflection paper focused on “self as leader”
$10.00Paper One: Write a 4-5 page reflection paper focused on “self as leader” and his/her current ethical decision-making method.
In reflecting on self as leader, the students will write on their current skills as a manager or leader, including their potential for leadership growth and development. What is their skill level today? Where do they want to be at the end of the MBA program? What area(s) specifically need development? Students should outline the two to three leadership development goals to be achieved during the program and the action plans that they will undertake during the program to reach those goals. Then the students need to address how they will measure the accomplishment of these goals. They should include their strengths and weaknesses with the development plan. Students may also query their colleagues for specific feedback on potential areas of development as an input to identifying strengths and weaknesses.
The following is a guide for them to draw from, in addition to their learning on leadership styles in the curriculum.
MANAGERS LEADERS Mainly cope with – Complexity Change What needs to be done by: Planning and budgeting Setting a direction, creating the vision, and modeling the way Pulling together the people needed to get the job done through: Organizing and staffing Aligning and challenging the status quo in support of strategic goals Ensuring that people do their jobs by: Controlling and day-to-day problem solving Motivating, inspiring, and facilitating the best solutions for ill-defined problems In reflection of their ethical decision-making method, students will write on the various ethical systems described in the text and which ethical system(s) the student utilizes when making decisions: egoism, universalism, utilitarianism or relativism. How does their decision-making style inform their management/leadership? What does the student need to do in order to improve their ethical decision-making? The student may discuss an experience that typifies current state/understanding of ethical development. Discuss the ethical values that are most important: honesty, responsibility, trust, citizenship, integrity, and respect and how the student plans to improve their ethical decision-making during the course of the program. A discussion of how stress is likely to impact their decision-making and how they will proactively manage work/life balance is also suggested.
