Becoming an Ethical and Socially Just Leader: Personal Development Plan

By reflecting on our capacities and areas for development, we enhance our strategic knowledge and skills for ethical leadership and social justice. In this assignment, you will create a 5 page personal development plan outlining your path to becoming a more ethical and socially just leader. Step 1 Review the coursework, course readings, and video presentations. Conduct additional research to identify a current or historical leader you believe exemplifies responsible leadership. Note: Select a public figure. Do not choose someone you know from your personal or professional life unless the person is publicly recognized for leadership because you must justify your ratings with research evidence. Step 2 Download the ACE Personal Development Plan template. Complete the evaluation section of the template. Use APA-formatted in-text citations to justify your rating of your leader and yourself. Step 3 Complete the development plan section of the template. Propose strategies and actions you will take to enhance your capacities for each identified area of growth. Use APA-formatted in-text citations to support your strategies. Step 4 Finalize your personal development plan by reflecting on your experiences learning about ethics and social justice leadership in this course. Use APA-formatted in-text citations to enhance and support your thinking. Cite your sources in an APA-formatted reference section. Note: Your finished assignment should look like something used in the workplace instead of an APA-formatted essay. Include APA-formatted in-text citations and a reference list. You do not need an APA-formatted title page. Step 5 Submit your completed personal development plan as a Word document. DUE DEC. 7
