Assignment Task
Your assignment for this module consists of two main elements, submitted as a single essay but formally structured into two distinct sections. The first section should be in the region of words. The second section should be in the region of words. The remaining approximately words are for your introduction and conclusion.
Part 1
Identify a team group of people within a service in the health care sector in which you are working or have recently worked and reflect on and discuss your observations, analysis and evaluation of how leadership has been practiced there until now.
In the discussion explore how it has adapted or changed as a result of the disruptive impact of the pandemic and what could be done to further improve the leadership practice.
Use relevant concepts and theories that we covered in this module to support your discussion and justify your analysis and suggestions for improvement.
As you discuss how leadership could be improved, give practical examples of how this approach to leadership would be practiced in the work environment.
Part 2
Briefly summarise the insights about leadership practice you have gained from your learning experience over the course of this module, such as the application of your selected leadership theories in part 1 of this essay.
This means that you need to summarise the insights you have gained about your own leadership thinking, knowledge and practice from the activities and reflections throughout the module and place evidence of these reflections in the appendix.
How do these insights inform your own leadership practice?
Based on this, discuss which two aspects of your leadership practice you would like to improve and how will you do this?
Create a SMART leadership development plan with which to support your proposed personal improvements.
