Topic chosen is transformational leadership
Throughout the semester, you have been working toward the Service Leadership Final Paper that spotlights and honors an APRN leader and the leadership style and strategies that they employ to improve quality metrics within healthcare systems, organizations, and diverse practice settings.
This evidence-based paper involves primary research, conducted through one live interview, as well as secondary research, conducted through consultation, review, and synthesis of existing literature. The final paper is supposed to be of a quality suitable for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.
Your Service Leadership Project will conclude with your submission of a final paper that represents an objective and in-depth analysis of a leadership style as exemplified by your chosen APRN.
Make sure that your 7–9 page final paper contains the following critical components:
· Title page (not included in the 7–9 page count)
· Abstract (250-word maximum, not included in the 7–9 page count)
· Introduction: including a purpose statement for the paper
· Description of the selected leadership style identified through the APRN interview (e.g., servant leadership, transformational leadership, etc.)
· Synthesis of existing literature (your previous assignment with necessary changes made)
· Overview of how your chosen APRN leader exemplifies their leadership style, including specific examples of quality metrics (examples of how the APRN leader has impacted their clinical/unit setting)
· Conclusion
· Reference page (not included in the 7–9 page count)
