Issue in Focus: COVID-19

/in /by

The COVID-19 pandemic has proved to be an extremely difficult challenge for the Trump Administration and figured prominently in the debate associated with the 2020 Presidential election campaign. The issue has dominated the headlines and caused major social, economic, political as well as educational disruption over the last nine months or so. Despite reassuring messages and a growing degree of resignation from some public figures and media outletsthe virus has not disappeared and has in fact continued to spread across the country in waves as the death toll rises, confronting leaders with an ongoing series of complex, difficult and ethically-charged decisions and communications challenges.

Needs at least 8-12 well-chosen articles or videos on different aspects of the issue (and leader/s) in focus, though you may want to use more of course.

Your assignment is to write a well-crafted 1200-1600 word essay exploring this issue and the leadership (or mis-leadership) and ethics exhibited by U.S. leaders in addressing it. The essay should include well-developed answers to the following cluster of questions:
From the vantage point of November 2020, do you believe that the COVID-19 pandemic should be considered a national crisis as defined in the readings for this course? [Make sure to include and apply at least one explicit definition of crisis from the course readings and discuss to what extent COVID-19 has or has not fulfilled the criteria associated with that definition over the course of the pandemic thus far.]
Several of the readings (e.g. by Elliston, OLeary, and Marcus, Dorn et al) identify situations where experts or other subordinates may feel the need to guide leaders to make better-informed decisions, attempt to convince leaders to change poor decisions, correct misleading communications, blow the whistle or otherwise act to resist policies adopted by leaders. Briefly describe at least two forms of such bottom up leadership to be found in the course readings and provide examples from COVID-19.
Using the book by Gini and Green as a point of departure, evaluate the leadership of one of the following leaders with regard to COVID 19: President Donald Trump, Vice-President Michael Pence, Dr. Anthony Fauci, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, Vice President or Presidential candidate Joe Biden. In other
words, to what extent do you think your chosen leaders response to this issue is consistent (or inconsistent) with Gini and Greens list of modern leadership virtues. [Make sure to discuss at least three of the virtues.]

The following sources are drawn from somewhat different political and journalistic angles and should help to get you started. Please be source critical and sensitive to bias as well as the difference between news and opinion pieces. You are encouraged to find and use additional sources as needed regarding the issues and the specific leaders you are writing about. Do not worry if for some reason you cannot access a particular source on this list; other equivalent sources (including ones that may be published over the course of the week) are fine to use too:

Use 1 of the movies listed below as a case study to analyze the dynamics of the story and characters through the structure and human resource frames. There is a link provided for each movie that enables you to stream it at a very minimal cost, if you do have other access to the movie. Each movie is also available through iTunes; however, you need to access the app store through your device and search for the title.

You will likely have to watch the movie once for context (if you have not already watched it), and then watch it again to gain the details necessary to appropriately apply the concepts of each frame. Alternatively, you may need to pause and rewind to achieve the same result, so plan your time accordingly (and it may be easier to watch it alone).

These guiding questions

may be helpful for your analysis. You may not address every question based on the movie you select, this is just a guide to get you thinking about the course material as you watch. Please remember that your mid-term submission is not a question and answer document. You are to analyze the information you find, organize it, and present it in a paper that is 6-8 pages in length.

Your paper should be written at the college level, adhere to APA guidelines, and include a reference list. Any sources used must be cited properly, including the movie, using in-text citations and a references page.
