Chapter 8: Leadership Models in Practice 

Discuss the following in no less than 200 words:

How would you apply at least one contemporary leadership model from this chapter to a real (or hypothesized) health leadership situation or case? Explain the rationale for your decisions, actions, and behaviors 

In two different paragraph with no less than 75 words give your personal opinion to Julie Skala and Kerri Collins 

Julie Skala 

I would have applied the Hargrove and Glidewells Impossible Leadership Model to the situation that occurred at my facility when they constructed a new children’s hospital.  Hindsight is said to be twenty twenty, but I believe had the leaders had this to follow, they may not have gotten the state in the situation they did by being three hundred million over budget, top directors forced to leave and giving the public a poor perception of our institution.

Hargrove and Glidewells model is based on impossible jobs in leadership (Ledlow and Stephens, 2018) and heading this project falls in this category. The project started and was approved by the state, received a large private donation, and then was placed on the back burner. It then returned and eventually was constructed and completed in 2017. Investigation ended up finding there was no one project leader and bills/projects just kept getting approved.

If I were to follow the Hargrove and Glidewells model, I would be a prudent and public administrator (Ledlow and Stephens, 2018) This model requires me to be constantly ready for change, which is exactly what the leader should have been prepared for. Constant changes to the structural plans, staffing, forecasts etc. I would need to use my intuition and be prepared to deal with the political side and the public. 

I would have set up a leadership that was accountable and able to work with the state and organization to reach its goals.

The Bolman and Deal Reframing Leadership and Management in Organizations Model promotes situational leadership.  This model focuses on structure, people, symbolic, and political constructs.  (Bolman and Deal’s Four-Frame Model, 2020) Bolman and Deal believe problems arise with inadequate structure.  This model also states there must be a good fit when naming a leader of the people.  The political construct deals with allocation of resources and symbolic leadership lends itself towards visionary leaders. (Gerald R. Ledlow, James H. Stephens, 2018)

An example of this leadership model is a recent change at my own healthcare organization.  Through a bi-annual employee satisfaction survey, hospital leadership determined the therapy department within our hospital was too large for one director.  Having one director for over 60 employees was seen as a problem with structure.  The employees in this department seemed unhappy with the lack of leadership, not necessarily the leader herself.  As hospital leadership listened to the employees, they knew a change must be made.  Within the department, a developing leader was identified and named director of inpatient therapy services while the current director remained responsible for outpatient therapy services.  Leadership recognized the resources available within the department and ensured a good fit as this person had experience and was trusted by employees within the department.  She understood what processes worked and what processes needed changing.  These departments run much more efficiently with fewer employees per manager.

Preparation And Information Sharing

 

Preparation and Information Sharing

This course has major project assignments due in Week 3 and Week 5. It will take more than a week’s effort to adequately complete them. Plan time to start the research and work on those assignments earlier than the week in which they are due.

The second piece of the course project gives you the opportunity to engage in the first two stages of the negotiation process. The first two stages relate to preparation and information exchange. Additionally, you will be gaining insight into your authentic self in the negotiation process, practicing behaviors for building greater other awareness, and refining your use of negotiation tools.

Preparation and Information Sharing

Tasks:

  • Begin this segment of your final project with a one-paragraph introduction that summarizes the negotiation scenario, purpose, and participants.
  • Provide a one- to two-page evaluation of responses to the seven fundamental questions (SFQs) (detailed earlier in the course material) for your negotiation scenario.
  • Provide a one-page assessment of a price matrix for your role (e.g., buyer) in the negotiation. How did you determine the various pieces of your matrix? If the primary issues of the negotiation are not related to a price, provide a resource matrix of the primary issues. You may include a chart or a table as part of your presentation of a price matrix.
  • Provide a one-page analysis of the zone of possible agreement for the negotiation by projecting a price or resource matrix for the other party in the negotiation and integrating it with the price matrix for your role. How did you determine the other party’s matrix? You may include a chart or a table as part of your presentation of the zone of possible agreement.
  • Evaluate a best alternative to a negotiated agreement (BATNA) for both parties, including a discussion of the processes you used to determine the BATNAs. Also, analyze possible ways to strengthen your BATNA and to weaken the other party’s BATNA. Assess the leverage available in the negotiation. Your discussion of BATNAs should be one to two pages.
  • Finally, analyze the information-sharing process in the negotiation. How was information shared? What was the climate of the information-sharing stage? What were the various interests and the data that emerged from the information exchange, and how might they impact the negotiation process and the potential outcome? What information was not shared, and how does that impact the negotiation process and outcome? The discussion of information sharing should be two to three pages.

Submission Details:

  • Submit your answers in a 6 page APA format paper

Communication Themes In Negotiations

 

Communication Themes in Negotiations

For this week’s discussion, you will again need to reflect on your negotiation history and identify a negotiation experience that you consider significant. You should be selecting a different negotiation experience for each week’s discussion so that you are exploring many different scenarios and applying your growing understanding of strategic negotiation to those scenarios. For example, if you have been using family-based negotiation events in Week 1 and Week 2, try using a professional (e.g., business or organization) negotiation for this week. You should not be using the same negotiation example each week.

For the first paragraph of your initial post, describe the negotiation event that you are using for this week’s discussion, including the participants, the key issues, and the outcome.

For the second part of your initial post, evaluate any one of the following starter bullet points, using research on course concepts to support your analysis:

  • In the basic communication model, information is sent and received using channels. Apply the basic communication model to your negotiation model.
    • In what ways did each party function as a sender and a receiver?
    • What channels were used?
    • How did the use of nonverbal communication influence the negotiation?
    • What feedback methods were used, and how might have feedback been used to enhance negotiations?
