Assignment: Application: Taking a Stand

Effective leaders have a high degree of self-awareness and know how to leverage their strengths in the workplace. Assessments are a valuable tool that professionals can use to learn more about themselves and consider how their temperament and preferences influence their interactions with others.

As you engage in this learning process, it is important to remember that everyone—regardless of temperament type or related preferences—experiences some challenges with regard to leadership. The key to success is being able to recognize and leverage your own strengths while honoring differences among your colleagues.

At some point in your leadership career, you will encounter an ethical or moral dilemma that requires you to take a stand and defend your position.

For this Assignment, you evaluate an issue and consider how you could act as a moral agent or advocate, facilitating the resolution of the issue for a positive outcome.

To prepare:

  • Consider the examples of leadership demonstrated in this week’s media presentation and the other Learning Resources.
  • To further your self-knowledge, you are required to complete the Kiersey Temperament as indicated in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider your leadership style, including your strengths for leading others and include your results from Kiersey Temperament Sorter to describe potential challenges related to your leadership style.
  • Mentally survey your work environment, or one with which you are familiar, and identify a timely issue/dilemma that requires you to perform the leadership role of moral agent or advocate to improve a situation (e.g., speaking or acting on behalf of a vulnerable patient, the need for appropriate staffing, a colleague being treated unfairly).
  • What ethical, moral, or legal skills, dispositions, and/or strategies would help you resolve this dilemma? Define the differences between ethical, moral, and legal leadership.
  • Finally, consider the values and principles that guide the nursing profession; the organization’s mission, vision, and values; the leadership and management competencies addressed in this course; and your own values and reasons for entering the profession. What motivation do you see for taking a stand on an important issue even when it is difficult to do so?

To complete:

Write a 4 page paper (page count does not include title and reference page) that addresses the following:

  • Introduce the conceptual frameworks of the ethical constructs of ethics, moral, or legal standards and the purpose of the paper.
  • Consider an ethical, moral, or legal dilemma that you have encountered in your work environment and describe it.
  • Analyze the moral, ethical, and legal implications utilized in this situation. Describe your role as a moral agent or advocate for this specific issue.
  • Consider your leadership styles identified by your self-assessment and determine if they act as a barrier or facilitation during this dilemma.

Ethics refers to a set of moral principles that aims at guiding one's behaviour. It is merely
the moral duty and integrity to differentiate good behaviours from bad behaviours. According to
Doody (2016), these principles of behaviours can change one's initial thoughts, actions they take
and the decisions they make. Ethics inherently guides and protects society and its dwellers from
immoral behaviours. This in return shapes the morality of a given community or profession.
Therefore, for individuals to make wise and moral decisions, it is essential that they are
conversant with the principles of ethics as well as ethical frameworks. Leaders should also
demonstrate a perfect leadership style that is error free and strongly emphasize on a proper way
of making decisions. This paper aims at introducing the conceptual frameworks of ethics, morals
as well as legal standards. It will also explore a scenario dilemma of my experience and an
analysis of the implications practised. More so, this paper will take into consideration the
leadership styles identified through self-assessment to conclude whether it was a barrier or a
facilitator to the dilemma experienced.
Nursing as any other career inevitably faces challenges and dilemmas. Often, nurses are
faced with difficulties that make it nearly impossible to make decisions. Today, there is a need
for nurses to practice a high level of ethical standards in the mental healthcare, such as the
addiction dimensions, autonomy in patients, confidentiality as well as treatment of the mentally
ill patients. According to Marqui...
