As a nurse leader, it is important to understand a variety of leadership models and styles. This will help you adapt to different settings and apply strategies to support and inspire others. It may also be necessary to apply models in different professional settings to satisfy certification requirements.

This assignment is composed of two parts, a graphic organizer and a written paper.

Part I: Graphic Organizer

Research five leadership models and styles. One model must be transformational leadership.

Design a graphic organizer to compare servant leadership with the other models. Consider how these models or styles bring about organizational, team, or individual change or growth. How do leaders implement each of the models and how do they fit with your personal beliefs?

Part II: Personal Model of Leadership Paper

Write a 1,000-1,250 word paper about your personal model of leadership, including the following:

1. How may your personal model of leadership be applied in your professional setting?
2. How does your personal model of leadership compare to the models you researched for the graphic organizer?
3. Does your personal model follow the lines of servant leadership or transformational leadership?
