Specifically, examine what methods you might utilize to provide community education about the topic selected.Some examples include workshops, newspaper, media, etc.Analyze the effectiveness of advocacy and community education for the social issue that you discussed. In your answer, be certain to indicate if you think advocacy or community education is more effective for the social issue. If you think they are both effective, be sure to indicate how and why.Identify an organization that provides advocacy for the social issue you have discussed and an organization that provides community education related to the issue. In your answer, be certain to examine whether or not you think the organizations are effective and if you would change or add anything related to their advocacy or education services.

Explain the significance of the leadership characteristics you identified and how they apply to your own career progression.

Based on the interviews you completed in Assessment 2, write a report that describes your interview experiences, summarizes your findings, and analyzes your interviewees’ personal characteristics as they align with effective leadership.IntroductionThe purpose of this assessment is to consolidate your experience interviewing two leaders and to incorporate what you have learned thus far about the personal characteristics of effective leaders. Your assessment will reflect your insights about integrity, purpose, change, interpersonal skills, and keeping balance (resilience), and will embody a meaningful leadership story at different levels of an organization’s leadership.The resources in this assessment address the implications of new science for leadership. Much of the traditional literature on organizations has been based in Newtonian images of the world as a mechanical operation where the manager’s task is to control outcomes, determine truth, and make sure things are right. New science has challenged many of these underlying assumptions, changing the thinking about organization and the role of leaders. More emphasis is given to the importance of identity and evolving assumptions, such as the recognition of interconnectedness. The importance of relationship in providing the patterns of order and integrity is being recognized. Living systems are chaotic and constantly adapting, but out of the chaos a new order is created.Through dialogue, deep listening, and facilitating, leaders help followers create new knowledge and understanding of system patterns that allow a value-guided organization to let go of old patterns and reemerge adapted to a new reality. There is more recognition of the “boundary-less” nature of adaptive systems to their environments and the importance of values, mission, purpose, relationship, and accessibility of leaders to the survival of their systems. Living systems will naturally respond and adapt to their environments, making the leader’s job much more one of empowering, encouraging relationship, and facilitating the conversation about adaptation.In Assessment 2, you prepared to interview two leaders in organizations of your choice. You will need to complete the interviews before you begin this assessment. You will use the findings from your interviews in this assessment as well as Assessment 4.Using your notes from your completed interviews, write a report that addresses the following elements:Thoroughly describe your interview experiences. Write the story of what happened from beginning to middle to end. Integrate into the story the names of the people you interviewed, their leadership level, and the focus of your interviews.Recap your interview questions.Summarize your findings from each question including the best stories and quotes in each interviewee’s words and some themes that seemed to pervade both interviews.Analyze your interviewees’ personal characteristics and describe their alignment to effective leadership.Explain the significance of the leadership characteristics you identified and how they apply to your own career progression.Remember to edit and spell check your work before submitting it.Competencies MeasuredBy successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:Competency 2: Reflect on personal leadership skills.Analyze interviewees’ personal characteristics and describe alignment to effective leadership.Explain the significance of identified leadership characteristics and how they apply to personal career progression.Competency 3: Create an effective theory of leadership.Summarize interview findings that contribute to effective leadership.

Write a leader guidebook of best practices that reflect the new science realities.

Write a leader guidebook of best practices for new supervisors in your current organization or an organization with which you are familiar, based on the new science realities.IntroductionThis assessment provides you the opportunity to demonstrate a solid theory of leadership in a practical application that you can use in your organization.The resources provided in this assessment cover both change renewal and chaos. Even though we fear change and long for the comfort of equilibrium, this closed and insulated stance means choosing to wear down and decay. When allowed to grow and evolve, living systems integrate diverse information through open feedback loops. Through self-referencing of values, traditions, aspirations, competency, and culture, systems recreate themselves in similar shapes, or what Wheatley (2006), calls fractals. A leader’s role is to invite disturbance, to create dangerously, because disturbance leads to dis-equilibrium and, therefore, growth and resilience.By choosing to openly engage with change and remembering identity, leaders can increase speed to market and shape consumer preference. Although counterintuitive, the more freedom allowed in a self-organizing system, the more creative and adaptive it can be. Most innovation to the marketplace occurs through the adaptation to a customer’s request by one or two individuals. Information, rather than needing to be managed, needs to be shared and processed to increase awareness and consciousness of complexity and ambiguity. In the absence of information, people make it up. They will make their own meaning.It seems the leader’s role is to openly invite new and disturbing information and to allow the organization to learn, make sense of, and respond or adapt to a changing environment, trusting self-referencing and stressing long-term identity.The resources in this assessment also explore the paradox of order and chaos—how, over time and with a perspective toward wholeness, what might appear as chaos begins to build up a repeatable pattern of the strange attractor. In human systems, meaning, purpose, and mission are the organizing principles. Even a small change may result in a big impact on the whole system, and it is sometimes the slow but constant factor that is the unseen danger. So it is a combination of a leader holding tightly to vision and values while allowing individuals the freedom to act.ReferenceWheatley, M. J. (2006).

Evaluate the effectiveness of specific legislation in closing current gaps in health care policy.

Policy analysis begins with a review of current literature. Health care leaders must understand how and why laws are created. The best way to explore the historical significance and underpinnings of current legislation is to read the literature. Health policy making and legislation are dynamic processes influenced by multiple factors. A thorough review of the literature helps a policy analyst determine whether specific legislation is having the intended impact and if it has produced unintended consequences. In addition, a literature review enables informed recommendations for policy changes and advocacy.This assignment provides an opportunity for you to complete an in-depth literature review related to the health care legislation you chose to investigate in this course.By successfully completing this assignment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assignment criteria:Competency 2: Evaluate significant federal and state legislation that affects the scope of, access to, availability of, and reimbursement for health care services.Summarize findings from the literature on the effects of legislation on the scope, access to, availability of, and reimbursement for health care services.Analyze the effects of at least one piece of legislation on health care access, cost, and/or quality.Competency 3: Analyze the effects of values and assumptions inherent in the changing priorities in health planning and resource allocation.Articulate underlying assumptions, values, and biases in the literature.Competency 5: Recommend possible initiatives available to address current gaps in health care policy.Identify current gaps in health care policy.Evaluate the effectiveness of specific legislation in closing current gaps in health care policy.Competency 6: Communicate effectively, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with applicable organizational, professional, and scholarly standards.Write clearly and concisely in a logically coherent and appropriate form and style.ScenarioThe health care think tank board of directors was intrigued by the introduction to your proposed research and has approved your choice of legislation as the focus of your investigation. Consequently, you have been given approval to proceed with the research.
