Leadership Assignment
Explain the definition of a leader and of a manager and describe at least 4 roles of a leader and of a manager. Give examples of how each role is displayed in the work environment.
Rationale for Assignment
It is imperative that nursing students are knowledgeable about the roles of leaders and managers and are able to compare and contrast the roles of leaders and managers, because they will be working in both roles during clinical rotation and when they are licensed nurses.
Instruction
Before attempting the Leadership Assignment, please read chapter 10 in your course text book by Dahlkemper (2013). After reading the chapter, complete the chapter case study and answer the review questions. Completing the reading, case study, and review questions will help you to better identify the roles of both leaders and managers. Completing the case study may help you to better apply the concepts in the chapter.
Reflect on the leaders and managers in your work environment (take into consideration that one person may display the roles of both manager and leader) and identity how they display leadership and management roles in the work environment. You may also look at the roles that you have displayed as a leader and or manager.
