NSG513 Week3: Part 2
The purpose of a leadership development plan is for leaders to develop competencies that can bridge levels and functionalities in the organization. This allows leaders to promote team engagement, and provide purpose and direction for achieving their goals. Leadership development programs are essential to managing a team when it comes to planning and making the right decisions regarding functionality across the organization. By developing a plan, leaders are able to determine the skills of each staff member. As a result, leadership can utilize the skills of the staff strategically when putting the plan into action.
Create a 6-slide presentation to present to your staff that includes a SWOT analysis of your organization. If you currently do not work for a health care organization, use a health care facility where you have worked. Your presentation should be informative and persuade staff that change must take place to address the organization’s weaknesses.
Consider the implications if change is not implemented to address the organization’s weaknesses.
Include speaker notes for each slide.
