Leadership For Good

There are 2 Parts
****Part 1**** Consider the following scenario:
In recognition of your growth as a leader, you have been given the opportunity to join a professional leadership network. As part of your membership, you must create a unique leadership profile that focuses on your passion and your purpose for leadership, as well as your goals. This is your opportunity to present your leadership reflections and perspectives to others in your network and to create connections that may lead to professional experiences in the future.You should first engage in reflection. Self-reflection is an important skill in business, especially for a leader or an aspiring leader. There are a number of different models of reflection that can be utilized; however, one of the more commonly used models is the 5R Framework for Reflection [Bain, et al., 2002], which focuses on five defined stages of reflection: reporting, responding, relating, reasoning, and reconstructing. Using this framework will enable you to produce a critically engaging reflection based on your experiences. Refer to the following table for more information about the framework: Part 1: Perspectives on Leadership/Leadership Values
For the first part of your leadership profile, you will describe how you can/will apply positive leadership skills in pursuit of social change, be it in your professional or personal life. Be sure to incorporate the following:

***Part 2**** Part 2: Passion and Purpose for Leadership
Positive Social Change IconFor the second part of your leadership profile, you will share your own “passion and purpose” story, similar to those from Passion and Purpose: Stories From the Best and Brightest Young Business Leaders. Considering your self-reflection, your personal and professional experience, and the other ideas related to leadership that you have explored in your studies so far, address the following:
Create a narrative describing your passion and the purpose you see for yourself. Be sure to address the following questions as you construct your narrative:
What is most important to you in life?
What do you want the focus of your professional life to be?
How do you plan to [or currently] incorporate social responsibility and ethical decision making into your life and work?
What kind of positive difference do you want to make in the world?
