How was interview conducted?

WORD COUNT – I am providing some guidance as to recommended word counts for each area of the nomination essay. If you find you need to go over the word count, that is fine, but you should meet the minimum number of words. Please answer each question under the designated heading.

Introduction (100-200 words)

Before conducting the interview with your nominee, explain why this person came to mind as an ethical leader for you or the group?

Nomination Essay (1000 – 1500 words)

After learning more about the leader, why should this person be recognized as an Ethical Leader Standout for actions/decisions taken over the past year?

Write a compelling, strong essay of what this person has done/does and what these actions/decisions are “ethical.”

In your essay, discuss specifically how the leader has used or met at least THREE different JCB Ethical Decision-Making Criteria. You may discuss more than three criteria that the leader also uses.

Give specific examples of decisions/actions the leader took and explain the impact of those decisions/actions on others.

Since COVID-19 has impacted all businesses/organizations this past year and continues to be a challenge, include a discussion of what the leader has done in relation to COVID-19. This may be the majority of your focus which is fine. It is also fine, if COVID-19 actions/decisions are only a part of your essay.
