#### **Leadership and collaboration are critical aspects of a nurse’s work. The use of effective leadership skills and interprofessional collaboration allow practitioners to share their perspectives in guiding patient care for the purposes of promoting optimal health and well-being. This can only be achieved when individuals have a true perception of who they are as a person.**
#### **Reflection is a key part of building leadership skills and interprofessional relationships. It allows you to look critically at experiences and actions through specific lenses. Reflection can help you consider potential reasons and causes of people’s actions and behaviors and allow you to think about how to respond appropriately. This is vital because nurses are often at the frontlines of interacting with various other disciplines and are considered full partners when approaching healthcare of patients.**
#### **As you begin to prepare this assessment you are encouraged to complete the What is Reflective Practice? activity. The activity consists of five questions that will allow you the opportunity to practice self-reflection. The information gained from completing this formative will help with your success on the Collaboration and Leadership Reflection assessment. Completing formative assessments or activities is also a way to demonstrate course engagement.**
### **Professional Context**
#### **This assessment is designed to help you become a reflective practitioner. By reflecting on your leadership style, along with the styles you’ve observed in others, you will learn to continually assess and improve your leadership and collaboration skills.**
#### **You may choose to reflect on a collaborative interprofessional experience in a current or former place of practice, or you may choose to imagine yourself in the five short modules in the Sentinel U – Interprofessional Collaboration simulation.**
#### **Part 2: Write a two-page reflection**
Reflect on the leadership styles you’ve observed in others, as well as an interprofessional collaboration experience from your personal practice. (If you’re having a hard time coming up with an example from your own experience, complete the five short modules in the Sentinel U – Interprofessional Collaboration simulation). What did or would effective leadership look like? What did or would effective collaboration look like? Remember that leadership can be demonstrated by those who aren’t in official leadership positions as well as by formal leaders.
Be sure that your assessment addresses the following criteria. Please study the rubric carefully so you understand what is needed for a distinguished score.
· Reflect on an interdisciplinary collaboration experience, noting ways in which it was successful and unsuccessful in achieving desired outcomes, and how effective leadership, or a lack of it, played a role. This may be the Sentinel U simulation on Interprofessional Collaboration. There are five modules in this simulation
· A simplified gap-analysis approach may be useful:
· What happened?
· What went well?
· What did not go well?
· What should have happened?
· Compare and contrast effective leadership with ineffective leadership. What have you observed in others that works or doesn’t work when it comes to leadership?
· Given what you’ve shared about effective leadership and also what effective collaboration looks like, identify best-practice leadership strategies from the literature that would improve an interdisciplinary team’s ability to achieve its goals, citing at least one article from the literature.
· Also identify best-practice interdisciplinary collaboration strategies from the literature that would improve an interdisciplinary team’s ability to achieve its goals, citing at least one article from the literature.
· What leadership style do you think you need to develop more to support the above best-practice strategies you’ve described? How would you do that?
· Include a full reference list from relevant and evidence-based (published within 5 years) sources, adhering to APA format.
You will also be required to submit an APA-formatted reference list for any sources that you cited or used to inform your reflection.
### **Additional Requirements**
·
**Length of submission:** Part 1 is a one-page infographic resume consisting of bullet points and a few sentences. Part 2 is two pages in length double-spaced, not including the reference page.
·
**References:** Per the instructions above, cite at least 3 professional or scholarly sources of evidence to support the assertions and proposals you make. Include additional properly cited references as necessary to support your statements.
·
**APA reference page:** Submit a correctly formatted APA reference page that shows all the sources used to develop the content. You may wish to refer to the
[APA Module](https://lat.strategiced.com/redirect?linkid=2586) for more information on applying APA style.
### **Competencies Measured**
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and scoring guide criteria:
· Competency 2: Explain how interdisciplinary collaboration can be used to achieve desired patient and systems outcomes.
· Reflect on an interdisciplinary collaboration experience, noting ways in which it was successful and unsuccessful in achieving desired outcomes.
· Identify best-practice interdisciplinary collaboration strategies to help a team to achieve its goals and work together more effectively, citing the work of at least one article in the presentation.
· Competency 4: Explain how change management theories and leadership strategies can enable interdisciplinary teams to achieve specific organizational goals.
· Describe one's leadership style.
· Compare and contrast effective leadership with ineffective leadership.
· Identify best-practice leadership strategies from the literature that would improve an interdisciplinary team’s ability to achieve its goals, citing the work of at least one article in the presentation.
· Describe a leadership style to develop to better support best-practice strategies.
· Competency 5: Apply professional, scholarly, evidence-based communication strategies to impact patient, interdisciplinary team, and systems outcomes.
· The full reference list is from relevant and evidence-based (published within 5 years) sources, exhibiting nearly flawless adherence to APA format.
