The Leader Development Framework (see figure below) provides the overarching perspective of course design. This framework suggests three levels of leadership: direct, organizational (direct/indirect), and strategic (indirect), all grounded by common values, attributes and actions. The course further represents our environment which is culturally diverse, Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous, VUCA. This framework is referred to as the Model of Organizational Leadership (MOL).

The Model of Organizational Leadership (MOL) is a conceptual framework that allows us to understand the complexity of the leadership process in formal organizations. It gives us a look at organizations as living systems. There are four systems, or levels for us to analyze and understand: individual, group, leadership and organizational. Dissecting these levels (the individual, group, and leadership systems) helps us understand the face-to-face influence processes. Understanding the remaining level of analysis, the organizational system, enables us to have a working grasp of the impact of the larger organization as well as the external environment. By examining these four interdependent systems, we can often see patterns and relationships that a more restricted analysis of the situation might miss. Together, with the Leader Thought Process, the MOL allows us to look at a situation from a variety of perspectives. By expanding the focus of the analysis of a situation according to sub-systems, we develop more efficient and especially effective leadership style.
The MOL sub-systems contains a total of 4 Areas. Each Area will contain a select number of on-line modules (overview, learning objectives, lectures, discussion boards, essays) and a case study. As you complete lectures, discussion boards, essays and case studies, subsequent work becomes available.

Assignments and Grading: Passing Course Grade = 80% (accumulative grading)
Calculating your final grade is very straightforward. Your final grade is weighted. This basically means that all activities in the course contribute a percentage to your final grade as outline below. They fall into the following categories:
- Completing on-line lectures.
- The LMS will track time spent on the lecture.
- The students will have to authenticate an “Honor Pledge” at the end of each lecture pledging that they have completed the lecture.
- The LMS will match the honor pledge against time tracked for the lecture to allow access to the next phase of the lesson.
- Instructor reviews participation and verifies grade before posting.
- Participation in discussions boards (1 per lesson) – graded using rubric.
- Short essays (1 per lesson) – graded using rubric.
- Case studies (1 per area) – graded.
- Final Examination – graded.
- Participation in Residency
- Final Research paper – graded using rubric.
The following is a detailed outline of weighted final grade scoring system:
- Complete On-Line Lectures – 10% of the final grade
- Participate and Complete Discussion Forums/Binder Materials graded – 10% of the final grade
- Complete Essays (no retake) graded – 15% of the final grade
- Complete Case studies (no retake) graded – 15% of the final grade
- Final Examination (no retake) graded – 20% of the final
- On-line comprehensive and timed exam with no retake grade.
- Participation/attendance at the residency portion of the course 10% of the final
- Final Research Paper – 20% of the final grade
- Manual grading by the faculty using a Rubric.
No Late Assignments: Because of the amount of writing you will be doing in this course, we will not accept late assignments, except due to extenuating circumstances, which you must tell us about before the assignment is due. We do not give extensions when they are requested at the time when, or after the assignment is due. We will accept course through the learning management system ONLY.
Academic Integrity Statement: A violation of academic integrity is any instance when a student attempts to pass off someone else’s words or ideas as their own, no matter where s/he obtained those words or ideas, and no matter where these ideas are presented. We practice using quotation and citation in this course so you can benefit from others’ ideas, while attributing them appropriately. There is nothing wrong with representing someone else’s ideas in your work; you just have to give them credit. Additionally, there is nothing wrong with getting help on an assignment, but the final product must be predominantly the result of your own work. All academic integrity violations in the course will result in an F on the assignment, and/or, a failing grade in the course, and/or referral to the college’s Academic Integrity officer. Our college gives four definitions of types of academic integrity violation:
- Cheating is the unauthorized use or attempted use of material, information, notes, study aids, devices or communication during an academic exercise.
- Plagiarism is the act of presenting another person’s ideas, discussion posts, essays, research or writings as your own.
- Obtaining Unfair Advantage is any activity that intentionally or unintentionally gives a student an unfair advantage in his/her academic work over another student.
- Falsification of Records and Official Documents.
At the college, we originally adopted the APA Writing Style 6th Edition for the program beginning with Session #001 and ending with Session #016. Going forward and keeping with current APA requirements, we will adopt the APA Writing Style 7th Edition for the program beginning in fall 2022 with Session #017. Please click here to download guidelines for a brief overview.
Please see a sample APA Writing 6th Edition Case Study applicable to Session #001 to Session #016 only.
Here is a sample APA Writing 7th Edition Case Study for Session #017 and going forward.
Utilization of APA Style is required for all essays, case studies, and final capstone research papers.
President Normore and the senior faculty will be enforcing these APA policy guidelines throughout the program, particularly in your essays, case studies, and capstone paper.
If you have questions about APA, you should feel free to contact Dr. Normore at 310-803-0150, or at anormore@iaps.org

Academic Integrity and Plagiarism: In support of academic integrity, we have adopted a plagiarism tool in our program writing assignments known as “PLAGIARISM CHECKER”. It includes the following: copying of one person’s work by another and claiming it as his or her own, false presentation of one’s self as the author or creator of a work, falsely taking credit for another person’s unique method of treatment or expression, falsely representing one’s self as the source of ideas or expression, or the presentation of someone else’s language, ideas or works without giving that person due credit. It is not limited to written works. Plagiarism is cause for formal program discipline (e.g., dismissal), and/or justification for an instructor to assign a lower grade or a failing grade in the course in which the plagiarism is committed.
