PAPER OUTLINE
Reflective Paper Milestone #5: Outline with Revised Title Page & Reference List
1. Refer to the materials that you compiled for Weeks 1 and 2 intended for completion of the final paper.
2. Create an outline of your paper. You may choose to include annotations (adding information, explanations, sentences that you have composed to start each section, etc.)
3. Submit revised title page, outline of paper, and reference list (I HAVE THE REFERENCES PLEASE DON’T WORRY ABOUT THIS PART) with annotations removed by Day 7 of Week 4.
As you prepare this written assignment for the course, please keep in mind that a successful final draft of any written assignment should be the product of brainstorming, outlining, and writing multiple drafts. Many of the assignments in this course are building blocks toward the final Leadership Theory paper, but it is important to keep in mind that you will need to continually revise your work using the feedback from your instructor as well as the Writing Center as you use these pieces to develop the final draft. University of the Rockies Writing Center is a great service for all students, offering 24/7 live chat support and a 24 hour feedback turnaround for papers and discussion posts. It is suggested that you submit a draft for the Writing Center for this paper, and required of you for the written assignments in Weeks 5 and 6. In addition, continue to leverage Grammarly and Turnitin as you build toward the final paper.

Throughout this course, we have explored various psychological theories of leadership and approaches to the psychology of leadership. This assignment requires you to explore and integrate the concepts learned throughout this course. Submit a 3500 – 4200 word or 10 – 12 page paper (excluding the title page and reference pages) in which you select three distinct psychological theories of leadership (Transformational, behavioral, and trait theory) and evaluate each one in terms of its foundational philosophical assumptions and values. Finally, reflecting on each theory’s underlying principles, identify one that you feel would be particularly important to your career (current or future).
This paper should be a minimum of 3500 – 4200 words or 10-12 pages long (excluding title and references pages) and include a title page, introduction, conclusion, and references page. APA formatting should be used for the paper. Utilize at least 5 sources, 3 of which should be recent (within the last 5-10 years) scholarly, peer-reviewed research articles as references for this paper, and cite them accordingly. The other 2 references may be from the course-assigned texts or other relevant sources.
Be sure to include each of the components below:
· Present a clear overview of three specific leadership theories/approaches.
· Explain the foundational philosophical assumptions and principles of the selected leadership paradigms.
· Briefly discuss the limitations and strengths of each leadership theory/approach selected.
