COM 441 Project proposal

Alicia Gomes-Figueira
COM 441 Project Proposal Leadership and Communication
Spring 2010 Dr Becker

My project proposal will consist of the following:
What do you plan to do? I plan to research on women leaders who ran for office throughout history and look at who they ran against, how the media portrayed and advertised these women leaders.

Why (how does it connect to your mission?) It will connect to my mission and gaining leadership skills from women who have been in the leadership position and was successful and it will show that women can become leaders within their community, local, national and international just as well as men.

When? I will have my research paper ready to submit to Dr Becker and the COM 441 class in May 2010.

How? I will develop 10-15 page research paper which will include all the research I have found to make my project a success.

What will you need to succeed? I will need to do research and look back in history on women leaders who ran in politics and became leaders such as Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin.

How will you know if you have succeeded? I will know if I have succeeded by the research I gather and put into my paper and getting feedback from Dr Becker and other COM 441 classmates.
