Applied DNP Leadership Assignment
The Growth and Development of People
Is the Highest Calling of Leadership. – Harvey Firestone
PURPOSE
As DNP-prepared leaders, graduates are expected to lead stakeholders in clinical settings
effectively. An effective DNP-prepared leader must be knowledgeable about leadership theories
and styles at all three system levels: microsystem level, mesosystem level, and macrosystem level.
This knowledge helps the DNP team understand that everyone has had various experiences and
exposure to leadership roles.
To help you reflect on your skills thus far, we created this assignment. Your leadership style may
vary according to the situation, demands, and scope of control. Therefore, the purpose of this
assignment will be to gain a better understanding of your leadership style in your new role as a
DNP-prepared leader.
Successful DNP leaders motivate their employees to achieve the organization’s strategic goals. By
understanding how different leadership styles impact staff behavior, you can choose the most
appropriate style for your current situation and influence your staff effectively. For example,
understanding how to use the visionary style allows you to describe your plan, exude enthusiasm,
and encourage your subordinates to follow your lead.

The Growth and Development of People

PURPOSE
As DNP-prepared leaders, graduates are expected to lead stakeholders in clinical settings
effectively. An effective DNP-prepared leader must be knowledgeable about leadership theories
and styles at all three system levels: microsystem level, mesosystem level, and macrosystem level.
This knowledge helps the DNP team understand that everyone has had various experiences and
exposure to leadership roles.
To help you reflect on your skills thus far, we created this assignment. Your leadership style may
vary according to the situation, demands, and scope of control. Therefore, the purpose of this
assignment will be to gain a better understanding of your leadership style in your new role as a
DNP-prepared leader.
Successful DNP leaders motivate their employees to achieve the organization’s strategic goals. By
understanding how different leadership styles impact staff behavior, you can choose the most
appropriate style for your current situation and influence your staff effectively. For example,
understanding how to use the visionary style allows you to describe your plan, exude enthusiasm,
and encourage your subordinates to follow your lead.

PURPOSE
As DNP-prepared leaders, graduates are expected to lead stakeholders in clinical settings
effectively. An effective DNP-prepared leader must be knowledgeable about leadership theories
and styles at all three system levels: microsystem level, mesosystem level, and macrosystem level.
This knowledge helps the DNP team understand that everyone has had various experiences and
exposure to leadership roles.
To help you reflect on your skills thus far, we created this assignment. Your leadership style may
vary according to the situation, demands, and scope of control. Therefore, the purpose of this
assignment will be to gain a better understanding of your leadership style in your new role as a
DNP-prepared leader.
Successful DNP leaders motivate their employees to achieve the organization’s strategic goals. By
understanding how different leadership styles impact staff behavior, you can choose the most
appropriate style for your current situation and influence your staff effectively. For example,
understanding how to use the visionary style allows you to describe your plan, exude enthusiasm,
and encourage your subordinates to follow your lead.
