Leadership is a personal skill that has to be developed and improved upon daily, just like an athlete works on his craft. We all come from different walks of life and that is often a factor in the way our leadership styles are shaped. Our differences of race, gender, religion, home environment, and lifestyle all have an effect on the way we are led growing up. It is a skill that is mastered over time, while never being perfected. Like anything else in life, leadership skills are often developed from who we are, where we come from and the people in our life who have taught us their knowledge.
Management is a vital process in the smooth running and operation of a company or organization. It is in the management level that a clear vision and mission of a company is set (Holan & Phillips, 2002). Leadership and management are therefore essential in achieving organizational goals and objectives. The Riverside Pediatric Associates case is common in companies and entities that fail to fit into the dynamics of an expanding work place. Human population is constantly increasing and so are clients of a once best rated health facility. However, the changes of the Riverside pediatric facility are not in conformity with the fast increasing demand for medication. Worse still are the incongruities of
The purpose of this personal assessment is to devalue an incident in which I believe I performed my very best, within my leadership capability, according to organizational policies, and lawful regulatory compliance while protecting cultural competence and our organization from any legal repercussions. Business environment will continue evolve and it is pivotal to the success of the organization that all potential leaders acquire the fundamentals of understanding human behaviors within a multicultural atmosphere. Different situations will arise in which leadership will need to focus on the many aspects of one’s personal beliefs, culture as a whole, and productivity at the least. What is evident is the diversity within
An effective leader must have a plan for success. This includes a personal plan of growth as well as a professional plan for improvement. This paper will attempt to highlight my personal strengths and weaknesses as leader, identify the areas needed for improvement, and identify the leadership skills and practices that I will use to become an effective leader. This paper will also give an outline of the goals that I consider a priority and a timeline for this development. The overall result will be an inclusive leadership plan of development that I will use to grow myself as well as any organization that I work for in the future.
Leadership is not a daunting thing, really. With the right mindset, you may surprise yourself.

Leadership is defined as the position of a leader, the ability to lead. I assure you it is much more then that. Being a leader is not easy, I have learned from personal experience. Being a captain of a football team is hard work. It takes guts to stand up and be a leader.
Being an effective leader takes a long process. Lucky are those that have been passed on responsibilities and duties that helped them become good leaders. They were already given the avenue to develop and become leaders. It is not easy to become a leader. It takes time and a lot of learning to fully become an effective and good leader. If you want to become an effective and good leader, undergoing a transformational leadership coaching will be of great help.
I believe that my past personal and professional leadership experiences make me a quality candidate for this position because I have 8 years of experience working in an elementary school as a 6,7, and 8th-grade teacher and 2 years of experience working as English Learner (EL) Program Lead in a high school setting. These experiences have afforded me the opportunity to take on many leadership roles. For example, that of instructional leader and coach, science department chair, English Language Learner department chair, English language learner program lead teacher (ELPT), test coordinator, and facilitated scheduling and programming of EL students, MTSS coordinator, and a union delegate.
Upon graduating from William Penn University with my Bachelors of Arts Degree, I directly started my teaching career with the Sigourney Community School District. For the past nine years, I have worked as a special education teacher for grades 7-12. During this time, I worked very closely with my administrators and AEA core team members to ensure students were receiving FAPE. As my experiences grew, so did my leadership roles. As colleagues moved and left Sigourney, I quickly became the “experienced” special education teacher in my building. With this unofficial title and quality work ethic, my administrators placed me on the district and building leadership teams as the special education
I found this experience to be an excellent one. We chose an integrated leadership style, I was tasked with the overall leadership and each of us took on a piece of the operation and ran with it. We were challenged in that Chanel is presently living in Korea with a 13 hour difference in time zone and this made communication a challenge. It was really great to see the way that we were able to recap meetings, communicate through email and shared documents to keep Chanel actively involved in the picture when she wasn't able to meet live.
Being able to lead a group or someone is a very powerful action. Being a leader in general is very powerful. Leadership is an art that is painted, sculpted, and displayed in all sorts of ways. There are many different styles of leadership that correspond with different tasks. From transformational leadership to laissez-faire leadership, there are various styles throughout the continuum. A transformational leader is one of the best, more successful leadership style. When going down the continuum, the leadership styles only become less effective. Everyone also falls in distinctive categories when it comes to leading others. The leadership style that is displayed depends on the person leading and those who are being led along with the task.
Before you are a leader, success is all about your performance, and your contributions. It 's about getting called upon and providing the right answers. However, when you become a leader, success is all about growing others. Your success as a leader comes not solely from what you do but from the reflected accomplishments of the people you lead.
Every human being is unique and is possessed with unique characters. In an organization, where numerous people work together, the character of every employee is significant in the growth of that organization. It depends on the leader to tap the potential of every employee and get the maximum from every one. Wise leaders always try to look the positive side or the ability of an employee instead of the inability. When a team works in a project, the success of that project always depends on the team work and not on the single person. There may be one person who is jack of all and another who is master of only one skill. A good team leader is one who uses optimal potential of both employees for the profit maximization.
Being a leader is like being the queen or king in a game of chess because you need to see how everyone can be affected so you need to make your pieces correctly. And yes, it is not as easy as it appears to be because you cannot take your own decisions yourself, you need to take into consideration what other people want. When my father came back from the United States, he came with great news that we could finally return with him and finally escape poverty. And yes, we did escape and came to live in San Bernardino, California where I attended school with better clothes never made fun at and also I made new friends and getting good grades. Then I join this
