Self-Assessment
Self-awareness
is essential for developing leadership skills. Recognizing your own
strengths, weaknesses, and values, and understanding emotional
intelligence and learning styles can help you to be a more effective
nurse leader.
For this assignment, you have the opportunity to
take a variety of self-assessments to learn more about yourself and
identify your assets and weaknesses as a leader. This will assist you in
discovering how you can improve your own self-leadership skills. You
will be asked to think critically about your results and submit a
reflection as directed below.
Refer to the topic Resources. Select
and complete three self-assessments. Be sure to document the results of
each assessment to assist you in completing the reflection portion of
the assignment below.
Self-Assessment Reflection
Becoming
self-aware is an ongoing process requiring introspection. The more
often people practice self-reflection, the more opportunities they have
to understand their own behaviors and adapt their approaches to working
with other people, which can improve both your own and other’s abilities
to meet their professional goals.
In a 1,000-1,250 word reflective essay, address the following:
Provide a rationale and brief summary for selecting each self-assessment. Summarize the results you obtained on each assessment.
Identify the leadership style that closely aligns to your philosophy of care and explain what appeals to you about that style.
Reflect
on how you might incorporate elements of that particular style as you
exercise leadership in a practice or health care organization setting.
Discuss
any particular areas for improvement the assessments helped you
identify and some steps for improving your leadership capabilities.
Analyze
the characteristics of an effective professional nurse leader, or
individuals in nursing leadership. Discuss the characteristics and
explain why they are effective for leadership in nursing.
Analyze
different leadership theories and leadership styles. Select one theory
and leadership style, different from your own, and explain how they each
support a professional nurse leader or individual in nursing
leadership. Consider how the theory shapes the nurse leader in such
things as collaboration, conflict resolution, decision making, and
negotiation.
