Be careful, class. Try not to write a public relations piece for the celebrity you are covering in your paper, or for his or her foundation. Write a scholarly, objective paper. Refrain from relying on corporate websites as primary sources of information -- a corporate or organizational website is a marketing piece, not scholarly research, and is not necessarily factual. Include the criticisms you find of your celebrity, refute them, and make a case for your choice.
Effective Leadership

· Describe the foundation or project for social good.
