   • For this assignment, consider the concept of interprofessional teamwork and patient outcomes.
   • Look to your current workplace as an example. (If you are not currently employed, look to a past workplace or clinical practice area.)
   • Apply the components of the iCARE concept to interprofessional teams in a short paper. (Body of the paper to be 3 pages, excluding the title page and references page)
   • iCARE components are:
     • C ompassion
     • A dvocacy

Leadership Theories in Practice

A walk through the Business section of any bookstore or a quick Internet search on the topic will reveal a seemingly endless supply of writings on leadership. Formal research literature is also teeming with volumes on the subject.

However, your own observation and experiences may suggest these theories are not always so easily found in practice. Not that the potential isn’t there; current evidence suggests that leadership factors such as emotional intelligence and transformational leadership behaviors, for example, can be highly effective for leading nurses and organizations.

Yet, how well are these theories put to practice? In this Discussion, you will examine formal leadership theories. You will compare these theories to behaviors you have observed firsthand and discuss their effectiveness in impacting your organization.

To Prepare:

· Review the Resources and examine the leadership theories and behaviors introduced.

· Identify two to three scholarly resources, in addition to this Module’s readings, that evaluate the impact of leadership behaviors in creating healthy work environments.

· Reflect on the leadership behaviors presented in the three resources that you selected for review.

Post two key insights you had from the scholarly resources you selected. Describe a leader whom you have seen use such behaviors and skills, or a situation where you have seen these behaviors and skills used in practice. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain to what extent these skills were effective and how their practice impacted the workplace.

Your Discussion needs  3 citations . APA 7th Edition. 

  

instructions from my professor:

In our Great country of the United States of America, it is the law in all Emergency Rooms/Departments to treat everyone that visits & requires healthcare treatment.  In Chapter 3, we discussed the Health Policy and the Delivery System.  What if uninsured/ unauthorized/illegal/ immigrants visit the ER requiring healthcare treatment; who should be responsible to pay for their treatment?  What policy would you create to support your view, and how would you implement this policy as a Family Nurse Practitioner in your role as a Public Health Administrator?   You may refer to p. 79 & 80. 

Please be specific & elaborative as possible.
