Leadership and You
Understanding how to respond and lead appropriately in situations that affect an organization can be challenging. There is no "one size fits all" solution to the challenges of social work practice. In addition, not all leaders are alike. Individuals' personalities, previous experiences, skills, and knowledge influence their leadership styles.
In order for you to determine the best strategy for leading a group in a specific situation, you need to not only assess the situation, but also consider how your leadership style can influence the desired outcome.
For this Discussion, you create and upload a video in which you introduce yourself and discuss your leadership role and your personal leadership style. Think of your introduction as your first step in defining your leadership style as you prepare for your leadership assessment in the Final Project due in Week 10.
Post a 2- to 3-minute introductory video. Complete the following in your video:
• Introduce yourself.
• Explain your previous leadership experience and skills (both personally and professionally).
• Describe an individual who might serve as an inspiration for you in a future leadership role. Explain how this example might influence you.
• Evaluate what style of leadership seems to be a good fit for you as you prepare for a leadership role in social work, and why.
