Discussion 1: 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.
By Day 3 of Week 4
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.
