PERSONAL LEADERSHIP REFLECTION

PERSONAL LEADERSHIP REFLECTION

Preparation

Before you can begin to lead others, you must first understand yourself. You must understand your strengths so you can further develop those talents, and you must also understand your weaknesses so you can identify areas to improve. Both strengths and weaknesses should be included in a personal development plan.

The ACHE Healthcare Executive 2021 Competencies Assessment Tool [PDF] that you have either completed or started in Week 1 in preparation for this assessment is particularly important. For this assignment, complete the assessment tool if you haven’t completed it already, review the results of the assessment tool, analyze the results, and then develop a personal leadership plan to set goals for the future.

The assessment is broken up into five domains:

• Communication and relationship management.
• Leadership.
• Professionalism.
• Knowledge of the healthcare environment.
• Business skills and knowledge.

Instructions

This assignment has two parts.

Use the APA Paper Template [DOCX] to write a 7–10 page paper that responds to the following:

Part 1: Leadership Self-Reflection

• Discuss the five leadership domains assessed by the ACHE assessment tool.
• Determine strategies to develop your identified strengths and weaknesses for each of the five domains.
  • For each of the five domains, summarize both your strengths and your weaknesses.
  • For each domain, identify at least one resource you can use immediately to further develop your skills, for a total of five resources.
• Describe qualities needed by leaders.
• Analyze the qualities of a leader you have and the ones you need to work on developing.
  • From your readings and research, define the primary qualities needed by leaders and apply those qualities to your personal assessment.
  • Describe which qualities you possess and which qualities present opportunities for improvement.

Part 2: Personal Development Plan

1. Create a 1-year personal development plan.
   • This plan should synthesize your assessment results with your research completed this week.
   • Identify at least three things you would like to work on over the next year and develop a timeline with specific metrics to measure your progress.
2. Develop a timeline for your personal development plan.

One potential way to approach this part is to create a table to break the three goals into actionable steps after you have identified three things that you would like to work on. Your table should have the following four columns.

• The first column should show the overall goals.
• The second column should contain all the steps necessary for each goal.
• The third column should show how you will measure the progress of each step.
• The fourth column should show the deadline for completing the steps.

An example of this table could be like this (your table will include three goals and each goal can have more than two steps):
