Part 1: Group Presentation

Focusing on the challenges in the scenario, each team will present an analysis of how leadership, power, ethics and values affect each other and subsequently, provide strategies for collaboration and effective change management. (Please note that each scenario has to be addressed by the team focusing on that specific context)

As a team you are required to undertake secondary research and apply knowledge from this subject to develop a comprehensive understanding of the event. Then the team will use critical thinking on how to respond to this event. Your team will prepare and complete a two-part presentation (case analysis and recommendations).

Your group is led by a Chief Health Officer, in one of the states in charge of managing the Covidl9 outbreak. The team members will assume that they have their professional strengths (real background) and values as well as personal leadership strengths (so if you have a medical background you assume this in the team, etc.). In support of the Chief Medical Officer the team consists of epidemiologists, infectious disease physicians, nurses, paramedics, etc...(optional) this will be discussed in class. Your group needs to deal with communities, stakeholders in the government (local) and federal, hospitals, organizations, public health entities, and programs. Consider people, strengths, and w eaknesses in each city.

The team will need to undertake research of the geographic regions and the politics before proposing potential interventions. Focus on also how to facilitate changes using your members and in dealing with the stakeholders.
