Assessment: Question:
3,000 word case-based critical reflection on the relevance of clinical leadership principles for the provision of improved quality in health care services.
You should initially identify a workplace challenge within the title of your assignment and align this to your leadership style and impact.
An example could be ‘Redesigning the patient pathway through collaborative leadership'
My assignment title:
"Compassionate Leadership for addressing burnout of therapists in a Private Pediatric Therapy Clinic in the UK"
CHALLENGE: Burnout of therapists working in a Private Pediatric Therapy Clinic due to high workload??
Compassionate leadership aligns with me due to:
?INJF (introverted, intuitive, feeling, judging) personality type
q Strengths: compassionate, organised, sensitive to the needs of others, both emotional and logical, focused on the future, deep relationships
q Weaknesses: can be overly sensitive, overly high expectations
This assignment should be broken down into the following sections:
Section 1 Your problem and your leadership style: (1000 words)
Critical analysis of your own leadership behaviours and how they impact on the quality of care offered to patients within the service you work in or have worked in. To complete this assignment, it is essential to have reflected on your own leadership style and how this is impacting on your clinical work.
Section 2 The tool and example of the tool used in practice: (1000 words)
This section should address how you are addressing the problem. You should outline the process you have taken to evaluate the ‘problem' in more depth. You could input the outputs here from using the tool with a simple explanation of why this was used.
If you are not currently working, you should outline here how this tool would benefit your workplace challenge by analysing the evidence for the chosen tool from the literature.
Section 3: Your impact and evaluation (1000 words)
This final section should link to your impact, you should integrate evidence here of your chosen leadership style and evidence around the impact of your chosen tool. Following this details around what changed within the service if you are working. You could provide quotes or feedback from the session you organised. If the outcome was not what was desired here you could provide an alternative approach, or reflect on the differences found. Or again bring in an alternative critical view to the application chosen.
We may repeat initial assesments to see change.
• Then I may reflect on how it went and if am I the right person for this change?
Can I improve aspects of my ‘personality' to improve change?
Would a different leadership style yield better change?
and consider whether an alternative leadership style would have been more appropriate??
The impact framework
There are lots of ways to demonstrate change within work. Through narrative viewpoints and quotes from others to questionnaires and tools. (maybe repeat initial tools)
