In this video, Bon Berwick, President of Emeritus and Senior Fellow at the Institute of Healthcare Improvement talks about the changes and the importance of leadership. In the last 25 years, the roles of leaderships have changed and expanded. Leadership is the main point of improvements. To improve healthcare, leaders can set in place the contact, support, encouragement, and vision that allows systems to improve. When the board goes to sleep or executive goes to sleep, the system goes to sleep as well. Board training, fellowship programs, and leadership development have been important in efforts to have a turnaround in the system and its leadership.…
The question that is being asked is, Can individuals live together as one human race? With fiction stories from several different authors, there is evidence from each story to properly choose an answer of yes or no. The three stories are called, “A Quilt of a Country”, “Once Upon a Time”, and “Making the Future Better, Together”.…
Raymond Carver’s “Cathedral” explores the evolving interaction between a disparaging narrator and his wife’s blind friend, Robert. The relationship Robert upholds over the years with the narrator’s wife, as well as Robert’s inability to see, breeds discomfort within the narrator’s already prejudiced mind. Judgement towards disability and race appear at the forefront of the interactions and internal monologue of the narrator. When confronted with Robert’s disability, the narrator expresses discomfort and scoffs at the ordinary nature of his manner. The misguided assumptions he makes before meeting Robert partially stem from the narrator’s values and the resentment he has built up.…
In this assignment I will attempt to examine the leadership and managerial aspects of my most recent role as a leader, assessing my key strengths and most pertinent areas for improvement. As I examine my core strengths and areas for development as a leader I will incorporate what I’ve learned personally from the first three weeks of JWMI 510 – Leadership in the 21st Century. This paper will conclude with a plan for leveraging and further developing my strengths and, more importantly, how I will cultivate my areas for development as a leader.…
Success is not a straight line from the bottom up. It is not even close. It is a line that bends, goes straight up then straight back down, loops around, zig-zagging, U-turns. My life has been a rat’s nest of failures and successes. From game winning grand slams and complete blowouts. One of the most defining things of my life was being cut from the the MRHS baseball team.…
To overcome preparation barriers we need to plan ahead and prepare before communicating. We need to figure out what we are planning to deliver and whether we need feedback or not .And also thinking about the recipient reaction and the communication media they might have so that you can choose the best media to communicate. And to overcome noisy environment barrier we need to hold the meeting in the meeting room if it is face-to-face communication, while talking on the phone we can go to a less noisy place and communicate.…
I have no major successes that impacted my life in a huge way, but in general, I would say a great success would be getting good grades, and test scores. When I first advanced to the high school, I was afraid of it being really challenging and I would be failing all my classes. But, It wasn't that hard, I just had to study, do the homework, and pay attention. Getting good grades was a huge success for me. I have one failure that always keeps occurring no matter how much I try.…

Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America has been a large part of my life. It has influenced me in a big way. Running for state office and earning my position has been my biggest accomplishments in my high school career. I am the face of our organization and have been working with my State Adviser to make Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America as successful as possible. I put together meeting agendas, meet with state senators and representatives, and collaborate with other state officers to organize leadership academies for our members. I have had the honor and responsibility to work on a council with eight other people. We all work together to help our members and ourselves grow. Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America has been the ultimate leadership experience for me. As chapter president, I organized multiple community service events where we collected new, unused socks for the homeless. Our second community service was collecting food for the food pantry and donating it. There are many different values…
Does it only take one person to make a difference in a huge and complex system? I believe it does. “Lead by example” is a motto that can greatly help change and impact our Criminal Justice System. By setting the example for our peers of how professionalism, integrity, and work ethics are vital in the performance of any career, one can be the exemplary employee. By doing so, one can inspire others and motivate them to follow thus, creating another exemplary employee. It’s like a never-ending chain that can continue to grow creating more extraordinary employees and leaders that can bring change to any system or organization. We are all leaders in some form or way. As we know leadership is an art because it can continually be improved. There is no perfection but only near perfection.…
My most meaningful accomplishment has been in the recent year. Winning the election for Florida A&M Universities Student Government Association Vice President, for it to be stripped away from us from out past University President. My accomplishment was of course acquiring our position after a 6-month period, but the greatest accomplishment I’ve witnessed was resilience within myself. Through this imperial experience, I’ve realized the importance of fighting for whats right. For this reason, I’ve realized that it’s necessary to do whats morally correct -- this was how I measured my success. Not by the position, but how I went about handling the turmoil of not getting everything you want when you want it. This situation served as an example,…
In conclusion, I am proud to have learned the life lesson, “hard work pays off.” It has occurred in my life more than once. Everyone should continue to work for what they want. Success is a great…
A single great leader can create many great followers, but a single great follower cannot create a great leader. This assertion, if true, provides a perspective on where the gap is in America. A leader provides guidance and motivation to a group to achieve a common vision. The ability to be successful at this role requires the individual to actually believe in the vision first and then find the people that share their beliefs and rally them to achieve the vision. In most institutions (companies or government), the leaders are appointed or voted in by a process that doesn’t always align the vision of the leader with the vision of the group. How motivated will a follower be to follow in this situation; so they do not follow. Not a Follower…
The successes with my team have been the outcome of efficient employment of my qualities to understand and motivate people. I had my most successful achievement when my team was deployed to a critical mission where a building was collapsed and survivors are assumed under the ruins. Each team was assigned to work on a dedicated area to clear away the debris by hand because heavy mechanical equipments were not applicable because of potential survivors. I could never forget that summer morning when around 10am one of my team members stopped and gave the sign for a possible survivor. The hard work turned out into the most meaningful hours of my life. It was the first but…
