The qualities of leaders and leadership

Question

The qualities of leaders and leadership have been explored in books, speaker series, videos, and other venues. Throughout the second half of the class you will be exposed to the concepts of leadership and the experiences of individual professionals and programs as they take leadership roles in addressing the health of individuals and communities.  This assignment asks you to reflect on the lessons and experiences that are discussed in the readings, videos, recorded interviews, and the special guests, and to identify your top three insights into leadership and how those insights can be applied in Public Health practice.

With assigned readings/viewings you will write a 3-4 page paper that identifies and describes your three key takeaways and insights into leadership for Public Health professionals and those entering into the profession, along with methods to incorporate your takeaways into your professional practice.   This will require careful consideration of the materials and guest visits to both organize your takeaways, assist in your synthesis of the information, and in writing the paper with citations/references to the specific materials.   Submissions may be in either a traditional format or in a memo-style format.  Regardless of the style, the submission must adhere to APA format and style requirements as outlined in the syllabus.

You must include at least five references from classroom materials (already given in pdf file);  no more than two videos from the video playlist may be used unless the submission has a minimum of 5 other material types.
