Demonstrating Effective Leadership SafeAssign Submission
Assignment Preparation
For this assignment, imagine that you are the manager of a health
care organization confronting a number of issues potentially affecting
the provision of safe, high-quality health care practices. You have
decided to focus first on the issue that has particular relevance to
your area of specialization or professional goals, or that presents a
situation you might expect to encounter in your leadership role. As you
consider an appropriate course of action to address this issue, you have
decided to begin by searching the case study literature with the
intention of possibly gaining insight into the actions of other health
care leaders who have dealt with similar issues and may have provided a
sound solution to the problem or issues they faced.
Select a Case Study
A colleague with whom you have spoken about this has recommended the Buchbinder, Shanks, and Buchbinder textbook, Cases in Health Care Management,
as an excellent case study reference. For your convenience, Appendix B
lists all cases by topic (Leadership, Management, Quality/Patient
Safety, Finance, Healthcare Professionals/Human Resources, Health
Disparities/Cultural Competence, Ethics/Law/Conflict of Interest,
Crossing the Line/Fraud) and by primary and secondary settings.In the Cases in Health Care Management textbook, locate a
case study that most closely aligns with the issue you have decided to
address. In addition, be sure that your selected case study will enable
you to:

Analyze the factors contributing to a problematic health care issue.
Assess the effectiveness of a particular leadership approach in
building and maintaining interprofessional collaborative relationships.
Assess the health care leader’s ability to communicate effectively to manage and resolve a particular health care issue.
Assess a leader’s ability to manage professional responsibilities and priorities in resolving a particular health care issue.
Determine predictors of a leader’s effectiveness in addressing
health care issues involving ethical practice, diversity, or inclusion.
Determine how the scholar-practitioner model might be applied in resolving a particular health care issue.

Remember, do not to use case studies 9, 65, or 67. These case studies are used elsewhere in the course. Select a case that aligns with the assignment criteria.
The case studies in the textbook may not supply all of the information
you need. In such cases, you should consider a variety of possibilities
and draw plausible inferences.
Write a Case Study Analysis
Write an analysis of your chosen case study.

Be clear and concise. Express your main points, arguments, and conclusion coherently.
Use correct grammar and mechanics.
Support your claims, arguments, and conclusions with credible evidence from scholarly sources.
Minimize the use of direct quotes; it is your analysis of the case,
in conjunction with your knowledge, experience, and the literature in
the field and its application to the case and practice that is assessed.
Use correct APA formatting for the paper, including in-text citations and references.

Include the following information in your paper analysis:

Provide an introduction that includes your thesis statement and explains what the paper is about.
Analyze the factors that you believe contributed to each issue.

Remember, the case study may not supply all of the information you
need. In such cases, consider a variety of possibilities and draw
plausible inferences.

Provide a detailed discussion of these contributing factors, citing references to support your response.
Assess the leadership approach of the leader(s).

Identify the leadership approach(es) or styles.
Does this approach make the leader more or less effective in communicating and building relationships across disciplines?
How likely is it that this leader will be able to build and maintain such relationships with other communities and leaders.

Determine how well this leader communicates.
Analyze the role of communication and communication strategies in effectively managing and resolving the issues.

Analyze the communication strategies or best practices demonstrated
in the case that could be applied to improve outcomes? Provide examples.

Assess the leader’s ability to manage professional responsibilities and priorities in resolving issues.

What areas might be identified as strengths? Areas for growth?
What lessons could you take away from this case that could be applied in similar situations or by other leaders?

Determine how the scholar-practitioner model might be applied.

Describe the scholar-practitioner model
Consider how theory, research, and the published work in the field,
in conjunction with experience and professional knowledge might be used
to develop strategies to analyze and resolve the problems or issues
identified.

Determine how effectively the leader addressed any concerns involving ethical practice, diversity, and inclusion.

What key lessons does this case provide for leaders? Use examples to clarify and support your ideas.

Include a concluding paragraph that restates or summarizes the most important points.

Paper Format and References

Recommended length: 4–6 pages not including title page, abstract, and reference page.

An example of the Capella formatted title page is located in the APA Style Tutorial paper.
An APA-style paper template and associated tutorial are provided in
the resources to help you in writing and formatting your paper.

For example, your title could read: “Demonstrating Effective
Leadership: Case Study 82 – When Yes Means No,” or “Case 83 – Emergency
Divert Status.”

peer-reviewed journals or other scholarly resources, the assigned unit
readings, and other reputable resources.

u04a1 Submission Requirements

Submit the first draft of your Demonstrating Effective Leadership paper to SafeAssign.

submit your paper to SafeAssign, you will receive an originality report
with feedback on the use of references and citations. You may use this
feedback to make adjustments before you submit your draft to your
instructor for their feedback. You will also use this information to
make revisions in preparation for the final paper submission in Unit 5.
When you are satisfied with your paper draft, submit it to this assignment by the end of Unit 4, Sunday, 11:59 PM CST.
Doing so will generate a new SafeAssign report that both you and your

help guide you in improving the use of paraphrased, synthesized, and
quoted materials as you grow in your scholarly writing ability.
