Research Paper Outline 1 Your final research paper will be based on a topic of your choice. The theme is ethics from the dark side. You will be required to explore and evaluate why people cross the line and make unethical decisions given their environment and situation in life. Also, it is expected that you address how leaders can manage these types of individuals. You may use some of the readings assigned in the class and expand on a particular topic. In order to complete this task, you will need to go into the library databases to find other articles/peer reviewed scholarly articles. Prepare an outline with bullet points of what you plan to cover in your research paper. Some references Bauman, D. C. (2011).
