1. CJ598
Week 6 Assignment
Develop Expected Results and Recommendations section of
Capstone
For this assignment, you will draft the Expected Results and
Recommendations section of your Capstone Project research
proposal. Based on your understanding of your topic, the related
studies/findings discussed in your literature review, and your
own plans for proposed data collection and analysis, consider
what you would expect to find if you were to conduct your
study. Next, discuss how the results of your proposed study
could be used to develop recommendations that inform the
literature, policy, and practice. Discuss the significance and
value of your proposed study as it relates to those studies
discussed in your literature review, and how it can benefit those
in positions of leadership, such as administrators, stakeholders,
and the public in practical application. Your paper must be 4-6
pages in length and include:
· An introduction that includes a one-paragraph overview of
your research proposal topic and a one-paragraph overview of
your data collection and analysis plan
· A discussion of the results you would expect if your study was
actually conducted
· A discussion of how these anticipated findings relate to the
findings from studies discussed in your literature review,
contributing to the current trends in research
· A discussion of how your expected results could be used to
identify at least four principles of leadership (NOT STYLES OF
LEADERSHIP) to inform administrators, stakeholders, and the
public in terms of policy and practice related to your topic. In
other words, what practical applications might your study
findings have for organizational leaders and policy makers?

The research study for Houston, Texas and the
implementation of the Whole Community Approach ideally
would develop positive results. This approach could effectively
create a resilient community for future disasters. The Whole
Community Approach involves the community which would get
4. the outlook of those in Houston, Texas and their view of how
they see disasters being handled.. When researching the past
disasters and Houston in general; there was a substantial amount
of evidence that Houston was the highest populated city in
Texas, that the largest city in Texas is Houston, with a
population of 2,323,660 and had damaging disasters in the past
(Cities in Texas by Population, 2021). Houston had many
experiences in which there have been seven federally declared
disasters since 2015, including the novel coronavirus pandemic
(Understanding Houston, 2021). There was no evidence in my
research that Houston is currently using this approach. Utilizing
an approach that is new to Houston, Texas will show results and
change. This approach has seen many benefits that can help
create more short-term recovery versus long-term recovery.

Expected Results
A successful performance of the proposed study should render
information that assists in discovering new tactics in combating
human trafficking while improving those that are currently
established. This proposal should be able to accurately identify
what collective human characteristics and demographics create
the profile for a potential trafficking victim in the Maricopa
County area. Which assists the current task force in
understanding what measures are necessary to improve
mitigation and deterrence of current and past trafficking
participants. Results should also produce county economic
characteristics that would assist the Phoenix Arizona human
trafficking task force in better understanding what are the
economic draws of traffickers to this area. These results
combine to issue a narrowed results who is most at risk, mostly
5. targeted and the regular locations of trafficking discovering for
Phoenix Arizona. Additionally, proper application of grounded
theory expects to produce results which align to
recommendations for rehabilitative improvements through multi
agency efforts in tandem with the Phoenix Arizona human
trafficking task force.
Anticipated findings Related to Literature Review
· Theme 1
Based on the elements required to conduct social
disorganization theoretical utilization in the proposed study.
Elements such as low socioeconomic status, ethnic diversity,
population turnover, urbanization, and family disruption (Eargle
& Doucet, 2021). This study should be able to create at risk of
trafficking profiles for Maricopa County. This counties at risk
profiles should demonstrate the high prevalence of minority,
female, single parent home background, low educational
attainment, low economic status representations. Results that
are supported by findings in previous research studies
conducted by; Eargle & Doucet, Greeson et al and the city of
Phoenix compass plan documentation (Greeson, Tregila, & et al,
2019) (Eargle & Doucet, 2021) (Force, 2014). Quantitative
results should also be consistent with intended semi structural
interviews in the participant selection process. Which
suggestively highlights expected results creating the risk
profiles for Maricopa Co.
· Theme 2
Performing the proposed study should render results consistent
with research conducted by; Martin and Hill, and Miller et al.
(Kyle Miller et al, 2016) (Lauren Martin, 2019) . Which
officially label the county characteristics and business events
that draw a trafficking prevalence in the identified community.
The Phoenix Arizona community would discover a large gap
between socio economic classes. With high representation from
minority groups primarily of Hispanic and Mexican decent.
Data for this area should render a disproportionate number of
migrant citizens both documented and alien. Noticing that
6. Maricopa Co. is a nationally recognized metropolitan area. A
link towards high trafficking and sex worker volumes will align
with major events in this area. Consistent with sporting (i.e., the
supper bowl), convention, etc. events and previous research
conducted in various studies (Council, 219) (Lauren Martin,
2019).
· Theme 3
Post traumatic stress disorders are associated with a wide
variety of events that humans both regularly and irregularly
experience. Studies conducted by a variety of researchers link
PSTD to victims of the human trafficking industry. Through
tools utilized to evaluate post traumatic disorders in victims. As
well as victim testimonies in anonymous interviews, the current
proposal produce extensive links of PSTD related to human
trafficking in the Maricopa County area. The current proposal
can also point directions towards what communities and or
cultures are more at risk than others to experience PTSD related
to human trafficking. Which links the three themes together.
Principles of Leadership
Transformational Leadership- Applications
Transformational leadership requires concepts consistent with
influencing ideology, interpersonal motivation, individual
contributors, and intellectual stimulation (Keller & Ram, 2013).
A transformational leader within organizational management
attached to policy makers in human trafficking utilizes diversity
of people and perspective as its main source of application.
Policy makers in Phoenix Arizona would create applications
that represents effectiveness to their specific community. For
example, the results render minority groups (primarily Hispanic
and Mexican) to be the most at-risk cultural group to experience
trafficking and PTSD. Applicable policy would suggest a
requirement for all victims to receive adequate physical and
psychological services due to events of trafficking regardless of
American status.
Collaborative Leadership- Applications
Alike to transformational leadership, collaborative leadership
7. necessitates diversity which includes internal and external
stakeholders (Keller & Ram, 2013). Whilst diminishing the
importance of organizational hierarchies and raising the
importance of organizational relationships (Keller & Ram,
2013). The stronger relationships policy makers push the
importance of relationships with culturally diverse leaders
(pastors, principles, business CEO’s) within the community.
The better they understand the needs of the community. Needs
alike to the need to battle human trafficking in Maricopa Co.
Expected results assist relationships created within the
organizational heads to utilize results in identifying high risk
potential victims. Policy would require reporting of citizens
who exhibit a trafficking profile to Phoenix Arizona task force
officials.
Public Leadership
One can agree that public leadership is required in the
identification and support of public interactions. Which cannot
be completed without notions of authenticity, trans-formality,
and distribution (Keller & Ram, 2013). Authenticity discusses
the democratic values of public leadership (Keller & Ram,
2013). Whilst trans-formality develops and trains public
workforces (Keller & Ram, 2013). Also requiring discretion,
policy makers could implement applications that protect victim
and participant identities when attempting to rehabilitate back
into serviceable society. Meaning, when trafficked victims enter
rehabilitation facilities, no criminal charges can legally be
brought against them. Expected results from the performed
study discuss effects trafficking victims when attempting to
rehabilitate (Marti Castaner et al, 2021) (Jenss Chang et al,
2020). Furthermore, any criminally identifying records of
performances conducted during trafficking are expunged.
Action Oriented Leadership
Requiring policy makers to create applications that are effective
and can be implemented immediately. Previously discussed have
been applications that apply the presented themes of the present
study. All of which offer recommendations to either improve the
8. current failures and successes of the Phoenix Arizona human
trafficking task force. An additional policy application utilizing
the expected results would be to introduce legislation that
requires trafficking task force implementation for all major
events held within and or in conjunction to the Phoenix Arizona
area. Links between major events and trafficking and or sex
workers have been previously identified/ discussed.
