Your First Post
For your initial post in the module, take the following self-assessment regarding your power and influence skills: http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/faculty/uzzi/ftp/page292.html
Based on this assessment, what are the results of your test? Do the results seem accurate?
Assignment Expectations
Each original 200-word discussion thread should contain at least one citation and reference from the required or optional readings list. The citation and source must be cited and referenced according to APA. Please note that URLs are not references.
Your Subsequent Posts
Read through the responses by your peers and post responses of 100 words to at least two classmates’ posts. Bring in ideas/comments and/or research/readings not mentioned yet.
Remember: To receive full credit in this forum, you need to post a minimum of three quality posts (your own initial post, and responses to two classmates). If you borrow from subject matter experts (authors, speakers, etc.), be sure to give them credit by citing sources. Note that the grading rubric requires a reference to support your discussion or one of the responses you make to a classmate.
Your discussion contributions will be assessed on the criteria found in the grading rubric for this assignment:
Quality of Initial Posting
Quality of Responses to Classmates
Reference to Supporting Readings/Information Literacy
Critical Thinking
Timeliness
The references found online, in the Trident Online Library, or in the courses may not be in correct APA format. For this reason, you are expected to research how to correctly format references. Do not just copy citations and expect them to be correct.
The basic format of references are:
Author, A. B. (2020, December 25). Title of the article. Title of the Academic Journal, 55(3), 23-28.
55 is the volume number for this fictitious example of a perfectly formatted reference of a journal article. Article titles are never typed in italics.
Author, A. B., Bolden, C., & Cheswick, D. E. (2023). The art of leadership. John Wiley and Son.
This is the reference format for a fictitious book.
Book titles never begin every word with a capital letter but they are always typed in italics. Notice the use of an ampersand before the last listed author.
MacMillan, P. (2020). Modern paradigms of leadership [Video]. Alexander Street. Available in the Trident Online Library.
This is the reference format for a video. The video title is always in italics.
Additional citation and reference style instructions are available at Purdue OWL: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/10/ and Trident University’s Introduction to APA Style, 7th edition.
