that have walked before me and past on their tips and knowledge. Be authentic fosters a healthy work environment (Raso, 2019). I lead by example and I set the expectations for my staff. My philosophy of leadership is to empower and inspire other to achieve their greatest potential. My goal is to motivate others to reach forward and work toward the vision. I believe that clear communication and being authentic are basic keys to empower others to achieve their personal best. One of my personal challenges is maintaining self-awareness and self-care. I truly put others needs before mine. I am very dedicated and committed to doing a great job. However, I tend to take on more and have trouble balancing work, family, and self. Authentic leadership encompass self-awareness and behavior that promote and align people and resources to achieve a common goal (Shirey, White-Williams, & Hites, 2019). My organization’s mission is providing quality care to the people we serve. We seek to provide safe, high quality, cost effective, patient-centered care. In order to achieve this mission, it takes multi-level collaboration and communication. I work well with m am and foster internal professional relationships with the other leaders within the facilities. I also develop more personal relationships with my staff my getting to know their personal interest and family members. This has worked great with building trust and letting them see my personal side as well. Gwen Raso, R. (2019). Be you! Authentic leadership.

I believe there are many di昀昀erences between a leader and a manager. A true leader will hold themselves accountable. Leaders aim focus on drawing on the strengths of their peers and cul琀椀va琀椀ng an environment that promotes both individual and team growth. I believe in collabora琀椀ng with sta昀昀 when crea琀椀ng a new policy, work 昀氀ow or “rule”. The result may not be 昀氀exible but many 琀椀mes the process is and many great ideas of “how to get there” have come from the sta昀昀. Having a commitment to my sta昀昀 and backing them up, advoca琀椀ng for them and promo琀椀ng them and their ideas has crea琀椀ng a great work environment.
