Role as Project Leader – NHS FPX 5004 Assessment 2

A healthcare leader needs to have a broad skill set, including but not limited to strong interpersonal skills, strategic thinking, good communication, and efficient planning abilities, in order to effectively address the diversity issue at Lakeland Clinic (Diggele et al., 2020). Effective communication of the diversity project’s vision and goals to the clinic’s staff is critical for a leader to ensure that there is a sense of unity and shared purpose among all team members.

Another essential competency that a leader in the healthcare industry should possess is strategic thinking. It is crucial to be able to foresee difficulties and problems that can come up while putting new procedures into place. A leader who plans carefully may help the team deal with possible issues and adjust as necessary, making the transition easier to practices that are more varied and inclusive (Diggele, Roberts, et al., 2020).

Additionally, a good leader should promote open communication and active involvement among team members from different disciplines. In order to validate the recently established procedures, team members should feel free to share their thoughts and perspectives (Liu et al., 2020). Additionally, by having an open discussion, employees can offer suggestions on ways to increase the general effectiveness of their participation in these procedures. Strong communication, strategic planning, interpersonal skills, and a dedication to promoting an environment of open communication and ongoing improvement among the healthcare team are all necessary for effective leadership when it comes to handling diversity concerns.

This trait is in line with my transformational leadership approach, which emphasizes creating a compelling vision for the committee’s approach to diversity. In my ideal clinic, both staff members and locals would flourish in a welcoming setting. Similar to Nelson Mandela’s vision of an inclusive and varied South Africa, my goal is to establish a clinic that embraces diversity as a strength and makes both staff and community members feel respected and at ease.

Nelson Mandela was a visionary leader who envisioned a united and diverse South Africa that went beyond racial divisions. In a similar vein, I envision the clinic as a place where residents and staff of all backgrounds can flourish. This vision is consistent with Mandela’s belief in the value of diversity and inclusivity.

A team needs inspiration and motivation from its leader. I am a motivator in a leadership role, using transformational leadership to inspire team members to work together to promote diversity and inclusion. My belief is that the team may be motivated by consistently praising and recognizing each member’s accomplishments. Nelson Mandela inspired South Africans to strive for national unity; I urge the group to work well together and address challenges related to diversity.

Nelson Mandela is well known for his capacity to uplift and encourage (NHS FPX 5004 Assessment 2 Leadership and Fostering Teamwork) others to strive toward a shared objective of harmony and peace (Specchia et al., 2021). In a similar vein, my goal is to encourage and uplift the committee members to work together productively to solve challenges of diversity in the clinic. This is similar to Mandela’s strategy of motivating people toward a common goal.

It’s crucial to assist and mentor other team members. I see myself as a helper who can provide guidance and support when required. I take a servant leadership stance in my approach, giving team members’ needs and development top priority. In keeping with Nelson Mandela’s encouraging approach to nation-building and healing, my goal is to help team members embrace and comprehend cultural diversity in order to foster stronger ties with the local community. In South Africa’s post-apartheid efforts to promote nation-building and healing, Nelson Mandela played a critical role (De Brún & McAuliffe, 2020).

 In a similar vein, I help committee members in their efforts to recognize and value the cultural variety of the clinic as part of my leadership style. This is consistent with Mandela’s pledge to back programs that advance harmony and understanding. Although I find inspiration in the likes of Nelson Mandela, there are clear distinctions in our situations and behaviors. For example, Mandela’s leadership was international in nature, aimed at the fall of apartheid and the creation of a new South Africa. On the other hand, my leadership concentrates on the details in the Lakeland Clinic’s healthcare environment. My efforts are focused on resolving challenges related to diversity in the clinic and encouraging cooperation among a small staff.

Mandela’s sacrifices, like as his 27-year prison sentence fo
