•Organizational Culture: How is your chosen issue impacted by the workplace culture? How does the workplace culture exacerbate your issue?
•Leadership: How do you think leadership impacts your chosen issue? What leadership style or characteristics further contribute to perpetuating your issue?
•Ethics: How does the ethical climate of your organization further contribute to this issue? Are there specific ethical principles that are not being utilized and therefore, making the issue worse?

•Purpose Statement:

•Leadership: How do you think leadership impacts your chosen issue? What leadership style or characteristics further contribute to perpetuating your issue?
