proposing, and why is it relevant for your organization?
e) Leadership: Articulate the role leadership plays in the current situation/environment that needs to be addressed. In other words, in presenting
your proposal to leadership, you will need to articulate the overall role they play in the current environment, such as whether leadership is
attempting to address the issue, is unintentionally furthering the issue, or has not yet identified your concerns as an organizational issue.

III. Implementation
a) Quality Outcomes: What are the desired quality outcomes you hope to achieve through implementation of your initiative? Your outcomes

promoting the proposed initiative.
