In all organizations, there are policies, procedures, and situations that need to be revised, or dealt with. Identify an ethical issue/problem in organizations. An ethical issue/problem is a situation that requires a person or organization to choose between alternatives that must be evaluated as right (ethical) or wrong (unethical). The decision may favor some individuals, while others feel affected.
Should conduct a review of relevant literature about the chosen issue/problem. Discuss the nature of the issue/problem and give thorough examples of its significance, and the effects on the organization’s success/growth. Based on the reviewed literature, present feasible solutions. Support your arguments with 8 – 10 current scholarly references and present your paper with a minimum of 8 pages and no more than 10.
Content and Structure of the assignment:
Begin the paper with the introductory section. The first sentences should highlight the focus of the assignment, a statement about the topic showing its relevance. You should further explain in this section the purpose and content of the paper following the structure/organization. The introductory section for assignments replaces the abstracts and should inform the reader what he or she is about to read.
The issue/problem (description and contextualization). Present the problem/issue and the context (i.e., field/type of workplace or organization without real names). Perhaps you need to define the problem, to better guide the reader (i.e., attrition defined by the Department of Education as…..) should add the source of the definition. Further explain what it entails, its consequences, and who is involved.
The problem: A Brief Review of the Literature. Present what is discussed in the current literature (i.e., academic journals preferably peer-reviewed) related to the selected problem/issue, evidence (i.e., justification of the existence and relevance) theories related to the problem/issue, and approaches for addressing it.
Potential Solutions for the issue/problem. Based on the reviewed literature, discuss ways to address the adverse consequences of the issue/problem discussed previously in the paper.
A brief summary of what is discussed in the body of the paper. No new information should be added. The introductory section informed the reader about what he or she was about to read. The conclusions summarize what was found/learned. Often the readers review the introductory section and the conclusions; then review the section(s) of the paper calling their attention

This assignment is based on the readings from Keegan on the Battle of Waterloo. I have included an ebook edition of the entire Face of Battle, as well as pdfs of the specific pages to be read on Waterloo. The pages in the printed edition correspond to 117-144, 162-206; the ebook pagination is a little different, but you can see the sections. It begins with Chapter 3 Waterloo, 18 June 1815, and includes sections on the Campaign, the Personal Angle of Vision, and the Physical Circumstances of Battle. Then it turns to the Categories of Combat, and you can skip several until you reach Infantry vs. Infantry. followed by the discussion of the Aftermath and Wounded.
The assignment is this. In 2-3 pages,
According to Keegan, and based on the experience of the British (and French) at Waterloo: Why do men stand and fight, rather than avoid combat or run away?

Identify a minimum of two professional development opportunities to assist you in building cultural competence and leadership/advocacy skills as a school counselor.
Finally, identify a professional mentor who showcases cultural competence, leadership, and advocacy skills in their professional practice. Make contact with your proposed mentor and briefly discuss how your mentor may offer your support.
Support your professional development action plan with three to five scholarly resources.
Part 2:
Benchmark – School Counseling Program DesignAdvocating for the school counseling program is a major role of school counselors in the school setting. In order to be such an advocate, you will need to be familiar with best practices in school counseling.
