About Leadership Styles

Transformational

Your Tranformational leadership score is 69 out of a possible 80.

Transformational leadership style is made up of 4 elements:

· Idealized influence (II) describes leaders who are exemplary role models for team members. Leaders with idealized influence can be trusted and respected by others to make good decisions for the organization.

· Inspirational motivation (IM) describes leaders who motivate others to commit to the vision of the organization. Leaders with inspirational motivation encourage the team to reach new heights in service delivery.

· Intellectual Stimulation (IS) describes leaders who encourage innovation and creativity through challenging the normal beliefs or views of a group. Leaders with intellectual stimulation promote critical thinking and problem solving to make the organization better.

· Individual consideration (IC) describes leaders who act as coaches and advisors to their team. Leaders with individual consideration encourage others to reach goals that help both them and the organization.

Your II score is 16 Your IM score is 19 Your IS score is 18 Your IC score is 16

Like the other styles, transformational leadership styles is not always appropriate. It is most successful when used with highly skilled or experienced team members, when implementing large-scale changes or resolving individual or group problems.

The transformational leadership style is most effective when:

· you want others to share in decision-making and problem-solving duties

· you want to provide opportunities for team members to develop a high sense of personal growth and job satisfaction.

· there is a large or complex problem that requires lots of different inputs to solve.

· changes must be made or problems solved that affect large numbers of people

· you want to encourage team building and participation.

Transformational leadership may not be appropriate when:

· there is not enough time to get everyone’s input

· it’s easier and more cost-effective for the manager to make the decision.

· there is a short-term crisis

Discuss the importance of the Measures of Center and the Measures of Variation.

As a healthcare professional, you will work to improve and maintain the health of individuals, families, and communities in various settings. Basic statistical analysis can be used to gain an understanding of current problems. Understanding the current situation is the first step in discovering where an opportunity for improvement exists. This project will assist you in applying basic statistical principles to a fictional scenario in order to impact the health and wellbeing of the clients being served.

You are currently working at Grady Memorial Hospital in the Infectious Diseases Unit. Over the past few days, you have noticed an increase in patients admitted with a particular infectious disease. You believe that the ages of these patients play a critical role in the method used to treat the patients. You decide to speak to your manager and together you work to use statistical analysis to look more closely at the ages of these patients. You do some research and put together a spreadsheet of the data that contains the following information:

· Client number

· Infection Disease Status

· Age of the patient

You need the preliminary findings immediately so that you can start treating these patients. So let’s get to work!!!!

The data set consists of 60 patients that have the infectious disease with ages ranging from 35 years of age to 76 years of age for Grady Memorial Hospital.

1. Introduce your scenario and data set.

-Provide a brief overview of the scenario you are given above and the data set that you will be analyzing.

-Classify the variables in your data set.

Which variables are quantitative/qualitative?

Which variables are discrete/continuous?

Describe the level of measurement for each variable included in your data set.

2. Discuss the importance of the Measures of Center and the Measures of Variation.

· What are the measures of center and why are they important?

· What are the measures of variation and why are they important?

3. Calculate the measures of center and measures of variation. Interpret your results in context of the selected topic.

· Mean

· Median

· Mode

· Midrange

· Range

· Variance

· Standard Deviation

4. Conclusion
