Interpret Transformational and Transactional Leadership in Healthcare
Week 7 – Assignment: Interpret Transformational and Transactional Leadership in Healthcare
Instructions
In the quest for quality care, human resource management systems must be established—ranging from the selection of new employees to the compensation of current employees. Those systems must support the long- and short-term goals of the organization and, therefore, require transformational (developmental) and transactional (control) facets to their design and implementation.
Based on this information, prepare a paper responding to the following:
Conduct research to provide at least four examples of transformational leadership in a healthcare setting, and then explain the impact of this leadership style.
Conduct research to provide at least four examples of transactional leadership in a healthcare setting, and then explain the impact of this leadership style.
Explain how the two forms of leadership are used in a complementary manner.
Support your paper with three scholarly sources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.
Length: 5-7 pages, not including title and reference pages
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.
