-provide a key argument and a call to action targeted to contemporary societal challenges/social issues

-be inspired by, and make reference to, the interview activity you did in Week 5.

Guidance

Catchy title and image – 10 marks. Your blog post should have a catchy title, using no more than ten words, and there should be an appealing image included within the main body of the post, ideally at the beginning or in the middle of it. (You can use an image that you find online but please remember to cite the source.) In writing the title, you should take the perspective of external readers, stakeholders and media, and try to grab their attention.

Logical structure and audience – 10 marks. The blog post should follow the ‘inverted pyramid’ structure described in Week 5. Your intended audience should also be clear (e.g. employers of people in precarious jobs, politicians working on immigration issues, the general public, etc.).

Key argument and call to action – 20 marks. Your blog post should convey one key argument, presented at the beginning (the Lead), and a call to action, presented at the end (the Tail). The call to action should refer to a contemporary societal challenge/social issue. By contemporary we mean an issue/challenge which is discussed in the public sphere (television, newspapers, social media, etc.) during the period of the B329 22J presentation.

Explanation of two module concepts – 30 marks: The body of the blog post should also make reference to and explain two module concepts of your choice that are relevant to the key argument of your post. Some examples of module concepts are: turbulence; complexity leadership theory; adaptive leadership; precarity; populism; charismatic leadership; and culture. (You may use other module concepts presented in Block 1.) You need to write the two module concepts chosen in italic anytime you mention them in the blog post. In italic it should be only the word or words (for example: turbulence; charismatic leadership) not the sentence where the concepts are explained.
