NHS8040 21st-Century Health Care Leadership

Unit 4 Discussion        

Leadership Profile

One of the best ways to understand leadership is through the evaluation of self and others. Our personal case studies document who we are and who we might want to become. From your analysis, you will begin to develop a personal philosophy of leadership, which will guide you in your health care or public health career.

In your previous courses, you identified a leadership theory or style that aligned with your views of leadership. For this discussion, expand on this theory or style and analyze what you have learned about yourself to describe your personal leadership philosophy. Provide a brief example from your experience where emotional intelligence was used—or could have been used—to improve or facilitate a complex situation. Consider how this relates to the theory or style you have identified as your own.

Be sure to include at least one APA-formatted citation (in-text plus full reference). The citation may be from your course text, assigned readings, or an outside source.

Remember to follow the requirements for discussions addressed in the School of Nursing and Health Sciences Faculty Expectations message (FEM).

Response Guidelines
