Management without leadership lacks inspiration to drive change. Employers generally include management skills and leadership expectations within job applications and descriptions.

Psychosocial Dimensions Project

Select one individual to focus on as part of your case study. You may select yourself, someone you know personally, a current or former client, a celebrity, historical figure or fictional character. Select a different individual for each dimension.
Create a visual representation of the psychosocial factors which have the greatest influence on that person’s behavior. Illustrate how and why that dimension’s factors may have such a strong influence upon this individual, and how these factors interact with other dimensions. You may create the visual representation using electronic graphic design tools or as physical media from a handmade collage from magazine images. Each visual representation must be submitted electronically via Blackboard. If you choose to create your product using physical media, upload a photograph as your assignment submission. It’s not necessary to submit the physical product (the picture uploaded must clearly exhibit the assignment).
You will add a statement to accompany your product, which responds briefly to the following questions in 300 words or less total.

o  How did you create your visual representation? What tools did you use?
o  What person did you select for your product and why?
o  How does your visual representation depict the biological (or psychological, psychosocial, spiritual) factors influencing the behavior of the person you chose?
o  How does your visual representation depict the interaction between the biological factors with factors from other dimensions of the biopsychosocial-spiritual framework?
o  What theory or theoretical perspective best explains the person’s experience with regard, to relevant factors in this dimension?
