For leadership students, leadership or leadership styles would be too broad. You could, however, compare leader and followers perceptions of leadership styles in private four year institutions. These are examples).
What is the cited problem? The problem you want to address has to come from the literature, and be cited, who are saying there are problems.
What is the population you would like to address?
What methodology are you planning on using? (If you are unsure, do you plan on a quantitative or qualitative study? You will determine your methodology in 839).
