Scenario Imagine that Lynette follows up with you in an e-mail shortly after reading your views on leadership and collaboration: Hi, Thanks for sending me your thoughts last week on the diversity issue at the clinic. Your next step is to select a team of professionals who can help you in this project and prepare an introduction of the project for a first meeting with them. I want you to prepare a presentation to serve as a brief, but substantive introduction for the first meeting with a group of 4–5 members who will participate on the committee tasked with addressing the diversity issue. Once I review more information about the proposed team I can help you with the recruitment. The presentation should be 5–7 minutes and use 6–8 slides with detailed speaker's notes so I can understand your approach. Not a lot of time or space, so keep things pretty high level. Do the following: • • Briefly outline the project goals and highlight 2–3 of the initial priorities to be addressed by the group. Also, explain why they are important. Explain the composition of the team and why you chose them. Note that you will not know the exact individuals yet, but assume we will recruit the people with the desired qualities and characteristics that you outline in the presentation. Consider the following: • Include a group of professionals you believe can help define the problem and ultimately make recommendations on how to address it. • Make sure each member is either trained in, sensitive to, or has experience with the concept of workplace diversity. • Give some thought to having some members from outside the organization. • Provide member profiles: their diversity, qualifications, experience, internal versus external, and so forth. 6. Explain your role and describe how the committee will work together and achieve effective interprofessional collaboration. • Describe how the group will communicate. How and when they will meet. • Describe how ideas will be shared and decisions made. • Describe roles, group function, and structure. 7. Describe the basic characteristics of a diverse workplace. 8. Provide a convincing argument regarding the benefits of a diverse workforce using support from current research. Thanks, Lynette Instructions Create a 6–8 slide presentation in response to the content defined in the above scenario and submit it in the courseroom. Presentation Guidelines • • • Length: 5–7 PowerPoint slides (not including title slide) that would accompany an approximately 5-minute oral presentation. Notes: Prepare detailed speaker's notes describing items on each slide so that the viewer can accurately interpret the deeper meanings and intentions that would have been conveyed orally. Support your claims, arguments, and conclusions with credible evidence from 2–3 current, scholarly or professional sources. Visuals: Create visuals that are easily read and interpreted. Use colors, fonts, and formatting and other design principles that make the information clear and generally add to the aesthetic of the presentation.

You’re approaching me for my contributions to solving the issues ailing Lakeland Clinic shows how good a leader you are. I have learned lots of skills from you, and this opportunity gives me the chance to implement the skills. Also, diversity is an important issue that, unless solved urgently, may cause further losses and make the clinic even more unattractive for the local population that it was aimed to help (Saleh et al., 2018). Diversity issues affect collaboration and interaction between professionals and clients, among others. Therefore, it will be important for the leader to supervise change and motivate people to change. Several leadership qualities may be needed to solve the issues identified. First, the leader must be competent in solving people's needs. Among the most important issues adversely affecting the clinic is the lack of cultural competence among the staff (Saleh et al., 2018). For a leader to solve the issue, they must understand Haitian culture. The leader should know what is appropriate for the people to lead appropriate cultures. If they do not understand the local culture, the leader must be open-minded to learn. Cultural sensitivity is also very important. Cultural sensitivity enables leaders to work with diverse people. Cultural sensitivity involves seeing other people's practices without judging them based on one's own culture. The leader must be a good communicator (Saleh et al., 2018). Communication may help the person connect with employees and other parties and use feedback appropriately. A good communicator will use appropriate channels and respect the various cultural differences in their communication. One of the people whose leadership skills are exemplary and that I would want to emulate if I get the opportunity to lead the required changes in Lakeland Clinic is Dr. Ernest J. Grant. Dr. Grant is a professional nurse with over three decades of service and several awards for his outstanding services and leadership. For instance, he was recognized for treating burns after 3 the 9/11 attacks. Dr. Grant is also the president and is therefore responsible for many achievements by ANA. Dr. Grant has participated in advocacy against discrimination (American Nurse Association, 2022). For instance, addressed racial discrimination during the Black Lives Matter movement to push law enforcement to respect and protect racial minorities like the other groups. Dr. Grant showed exceptional leadership by actively addressing discrimination issues and treating fine and burn victims fairly. I have several similarities with Dr. Grant. First, like him, I am a good communicator. Dr. Grant is known for his speaking skills and how he has addressed issues like police violence. His communication was also important in his work with the victims of the 9/11 attack. Also, like Dr. Grant, I am initiative oriented. Leaders must be proactive and act when they need to (American Nurse Association, 2022). Leaders need to seek to address issues when they happen. Leaders must be able to use data to solve issues. Also, like Grant, I am competent. For instance, I am culturally competent and sensitive, and therefore, I am likely to use wise solutions. Competence is needed to ensure that one practices knowledge-oriented measures. Nurse leaders must be educated to use their knowledge to solve issues. As a project leader, one must coordinate the activities and people involved and ensure the resources needed to cause change. Project leaders should avail information and ensure that the information guides decision-making (Iqbal et al., 2019). In solving the issue of cultural competence, the leader must provide resources like training and communicate with stakeholders to enable them under4stand and avail needed resources. The use of transformation leadership may help. In the style, the leader will be visionary and empower members to become competent and solve the issue of patients avoiding the clinic. 4 Steps to Address the Diversity Issue The diversity issue that affects Lakeland Medical Clinic can be solved by improving the current staff's cultural competence and sensitivity. The leader should begin by ensuring that the staff is knowledgeable about cultural competence. From the available data and information, people are avoiding the clinic because they feel like the employees are not sensitive to their cultures. Because people have already been employed, the employees should attend training to improve their knowledge about the Haitian culture. Using transformational leadership may help create long-lasting change. Transformational leadership involves seeking employees' potential and enabling them to reach it (Afshari, 2021). The leader must also be competent enough to use idealized influence to change people's attitudes and behaviors when dealing with patients. The leader should implement the change to see it and be influenced. Training and exposing employees to information that stimulates them intellectually may also help them improve their dealing with patients. Intellectual stimulation leads to change that lasts long and is therefore effective. Through the meetings and training, the staff should be encouraged to change and seek to learn more about the cultures that they work with (Afshari, 2021). The focus should be on improving people's strengths to cause improved cultural competence effectively. The leader must actively engage themselves in the changes they want rather than be passive while supervising their followers. 5 Another step that must be implemented should be establishing effective communication plans. The organization must have a communication plan that involves the various channels that should be used for the various needs of the clinic. The patients should have a channel to air their views and opinions. Getting feedback from patients will help improve their satisfaction by incorporating their input into their work (Sim et al., 2021). Also, effective communication may help reduce mistakes and disagreements that result from poor understanding. Sincerely, Anay Izquierdo, BSN, RN 6 References Afshari, L. (2021).
