    INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO USE EXEMPLAR AND TEMPLATE—READ CAREFULLY

    If you are struggling with the format or remembering what to include, follow the
    Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Template
    **_AND_** the Rubric
    as your guide. It is also helpful to review the rubric in detail in order not to lose points unnecessarily because you missed something required. Below highlights by category are taken directly from the grading rubric for the assignment in Weeks 4–10. After reviewing the full details of the rubric, you can use it as a guide.

    In the
    Subjective section, provide:

    · Chief complaint

    · History of present illness (HPI)

    · Past psychiatric history

    · Medication trials and current medications

    · Psychotherapy or previous psychiatric diagnosis

    · Pertinent substance use, family psychiatric/substance use, social, and medical history

    · Allergies

    · ROS

    ·
    Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!

    In the
    Objective section, provide:

    · Physical exam documentation of systems pertinent to the chief complaint, HPI, and history

    · Diagnostic results, including any labs, imaging, or other assessments needed to develop the differential diagnoses.

    ·
    Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!

    In the
    Assessment section, provide:

    · Results of the mental status examination,
    _presented in paragraph form._

    · At least three differentials with supporting evidence. List them from top priority to least priority. Compare the
    _DSM-5-TR_ diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what
    _DSM-5-TR_ criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis.
    _Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case_.

    ·
    Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!

    Reflect on this case. Include: Discuss what you learned and what you might do differently. Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (
    **_demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment_**!), social determinates of health, health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).

    (The comprehensive evaluation is typically the
    _initial_ new patient evaluation. You will practice writing this type of note in this course. You will be ruling out other mental illnesses so often you will write up what symptoms are present and what symptoms are not present from illnesses to demonstrate you have indeed assessed for all illnesses which could be impacting your patient. For example, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, bipolar symptoms, psychosis symptoms, substance use, etc.)

    EXEMPLAR BEGINS HERE

    **CC** (chief complaint): A
    brief statement identifying why the patient is here. This statement is verbatim of the patient’s own words about why presenting for assessment. For a patient with dementia or other cognitive deficits, this statement can be obtained from a family member.

    **HPI**: Begin this section with patient’s initials, age, race, gender, purpose of evaluation, current medication and referral reason. For example:

    N.M. is a 34-year-old Asian male presents for psychiatric evaluation for anxiety. He is currently prescribed sertraline which he finds ineffective. His PCP referred him for evaluation and treatment.

    Or

    P.H., a 16-year-old Hispanic female, presents for psychiatric evaluation for concentration difficulty. She is not currently prescribed psychotropic medications. She is referred by her therapist for medication evaluation and treatment.

    Then, this section continues with the symptom analysis for your note. Thorough documentation in this section is essential for patient care, coding, and billing analysis.

    Paint a picture of what is wrong with the patient. First what is bringing the patient to your evaluation. Then, include a PSYCHIATRIC REVIEW OF SYMPTOMS. The symptoms onset, duration, frequency, severity, and impact. Your description here will guide your differential diagnoses. You are seeking symptoms that may align with many DSM-5-TR diagnoses, narrowing to what aligns with diagnostic criteria for mental health and substance use disorders.

    **Past Psychiatric History**: This section documents the patient’s past treatments. Use the mnemonic
    **G** o
    **Ch** a
    **MP.**

    **G** eneral Statement: Typically, this is a statement of the patients first treatment experience. For example: The patient entered treatment at the age of 10 with counseling for depression during her parents’ divorce. OR The patient entered treatment for detox at age 26 after abusing alcohol since age 13.

    **C** aregivers are listed if applicable.

    **H** ospitalizations: How many hospitalizations? When and where was last hospitalization? How many detox? How many residential treatments? When and where was last detox/residential treatment? Any history of suicidal or homicidal behaviors? Any history of self-harm behaviors?

    **M** edication trials: What are the previous psychotropic medications the patient has tried and what was their reaction? Effective, Not Effective, Adverse Reaction? Some examples: Haloperidol (dystonic reaction), risperidone (hyperprolactinemia), olanzapine (effective, insurance wouldn’t pay for it)

    **P** sychotherapy or
    **P** revious Psychiatric Diagnosis: This section can be completed one of two ways depending on what you want to capture to support the evaluation. First, does the patient know what type? Did they find psychotherapy helpful or not? Why? Second, what are the previous diagnosis for the client noted from previous treatments and other providers. Thirdly, you could document both.

    **Substance Use History:** This section contains any history or current use of caffeine, nicotine, illicit substance (including marijuana), and alcohol. Include the daily amount of use and last known use. Include type of use such as inhales, snorts, IV, etc. Include any histories of withdrawal complications from tremors, Delirium Tremens, or seizures.

    **Family Psychiatric/Substance Use History:** This section contains any family history of psychiatric illness, substance use illnesses, and family suicides. You may choose to use a genogram to depict this information. Be sure to include a reader’s key to your genogram or write up in narrative form.

    **Social History:** This section may be lengthy if completing an evaluation for psychotherapy or shorter if completing an evaluation for psychopharmacology. However, at a minimum, please include:

    Where patient was born, who raised the patient

    Number of brothers/sisters (what order is the patient within siblings)

    Who the patient currently lives with in a home? Are they single, married, divorced, widowed? How many children?

    Educational Level

    Hobbies:

    Work History: currently working/profession, disabled, unemployed, retired?

    Legal history: past hx, any current issues?

    Trauma history: Any childhood or adult history of trauma?

    Violence Hx:
    Concern or issues about safety (personal, home, community, sexual (current & historical)

    **Medical History:** This section contains any illnesses, surgeries, include any hx of seizures, head injuries.

    **Current Medications**: Include dosage, frequency, length of time used, and reason for use. Also include OTC or homeopathic products.

    **Allergies**:
    Include medication, food, and environmental allergies separately. Provide a description of what the allergy is (e.g., angioedema, anaphylaxis). This will help determine a true reaction vs. intolerance.

    **Reproductive Hx**:
    Menstrual history (date of LMP), Pregnant (yes or no), Nursing/lactating (yes or no), contraceptive use (method used), types of intercourse: oral, anal, vaginal, other, any sexual concerns

    **ROS**: Cover all body systems that may help you include or rule out a differential diagnosis. Please note: THIS IS DIFFERENT from a physical examination!

    You should list each system as follows:
    General:Head:
    EENT: etc. You should list these in bullet format and document the systems in order from head to toe.

    Example of Complete ROS:

    GENERAL: No weight loss, fever, chills, weakness, or fatigue.

    HEENT: Eyes: No visual loss, blurred vision, double vision, or yellow sclerae. Ears, Nose, Throat: No hearing loss, sneezing, congestion, runny nose, or sore throat.

    SKIN: No rash or itching.

    CARDIOVASCULAR: No chest pain, chest pressure, or chest discomfort. No palpitations or edema.

    RESPIRATORY: No shortness of breath, cough, or sputum.

    GASTROINTESTINAL: No anorexia, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. No abdominal pain or blood.

    GENITOURINARY: Burning on urination, urgency, hesitancy, odor, odd color

    NEUROLOGICAL: No headache, dizziness, syncope, paralysis, ataxia, numbness, or tingling in the extremities. No change in bowel or bladder control.

    MUSCULOSKELETAL: No muscle, back pain, joint pain, or stiffness.

    HEMATOLOGIC: No anemia, bleeding, or bruising.

    LYMPHATICS: No enlarged nodes. No history of splenectomy.

    ENDOCRINOLOGIC: No reports of sweating, cold, or heat intolerance. No polyuria or polydipsia.

    **Physical exam (If applicable and if you have opportunity to perform—document if exam is completed by PCP)**: From head to toe, include what you see, hear, and feel when doing your physical exam. You only need to examine the systems that are pertinent to the CC, HPI, and History.
    **Do not use “WNL” or “normal.” You must describe what you see.** Always document in head-to-toe format i.e., General: Head: EENT: etc.

    **Diagnostic results**: Include any labs, X-rays, or other diagnostics that are needed to develop the differential diagnoses (support with evidenced and guidelines).

    **A** ssessment

    **Mental Status Examination:** For the purposes of your courses, this section must be presented in paragraph form and not use of a checklist! This section you will describe the patient’s appearance, attitude, behavior, mood and affect, speech, thought processes, thought content, perceptions (hallucinations, pseudohallucinations, illusions, etc.)., cognition, insight, judgment, and SI/HI. See an example below. You will modify to include the specifics for your patient on the above elements—DO NOT just copy the example. You may use a preceptor’s way of organizing the information if the MSE is in paragraph form.

    He is an 8-year-old African American male who looks his stated age. He is cooperative with examiner. He is neatly groomed and clean, dressed appropriately. There is no evidence of any abnormal motor activity. His speech is clear, coherent, normal in volume and tone. His thought process is goal directed and logical. There is no evidence of looseness of association or flight of ideas. His mood is euthymic, and his affect appropriate to his mood. He was smiling at times in an appropriate manner. He denies any auditory or visual hallucinations. There is no evidence of any delusional thinking.   He denies any current suicidal or homicidal ideation. Cognitively, he is alert and oriented. His recent and remote memory is intact. His concentration is good. His insight is good.

    **Differential Diagnoses**:
    You must have at least three differentials with supporting evidence. Explain what rules each differential in or out and justify your primary diagnostic impression selection. You will use supporting evidence from the literature to support your rationale. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.

    **Also included in this section is the reflection.** Reflect on this case and discuss whether or not you agree with your preceptor’s assessment and diagnostic impression of the patient and why or why not. What did you learn from this case? What would you do differently?

    Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (
    **demonstrating critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!**), social determinates of health, health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).

    **References (move to begin on next page)**

    You are required to include at least three evidence-based, peer-reviewed journal articles or evidenced-based guidelines which relate to this case to support your diagnostics and differentials diagnoses. Be sure to use correct APA 7th edition formatting.

    INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO USE EXEMPLAR AND TEMPLATE—READ CAREFULLY

    If you are struggling with the format or remembering what to include, follow the
    Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Template
    **_AND_** the Rubric
    as your guide. It is also helpful to review the rubric in detail in order not to lose points unnecessarily because you missed something required. Below highlights by category are taken directly from the grading rubric for the assignment in Weeks 4–10. After reviewing the full details of the rubric, you can use it as a guide.

    In the
    Subjective section, provide:

    · Chief complaint

    · History of present illness (HPI)

    · Past psychiatric history

    · Medication trials and current medications

    · Psychotherapy or previous psychiatric diagnosis

    · Pertinent substance use, family psychiatric/substance use, social, and medical history

    · Allergies

    · ROS

    ·
    Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!

    In the
    Objective section, provide:

    · Physical exam documentation of systems pertinent to the chief complaint, HPI, and history

    · Diagnostic results, including any labs, imaging, or other assessments needed to develop the differential diagnoses.

    ·
    Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!

    In the
    Assessment section, provide:

    · Results of the mental status examination,
    _presented in paragraph form._

    · At least three differentials with supporting evidence. List them from top priority to least priority. Compare the
    _DSM-5-TR_ diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what
    _DSM-5-TR_ criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis.
    _Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case_.

    ·
    Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!

    Reflect on this case. Include: Discuss what you learned and what you might do differently. Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (
    **_demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment_**!), social determinates of health, health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).

    (The comprehensive evaluation is typically the
    _initial_ new patient evaluation. You will practice writing this type of note in this course. You will be ruling out other mental illnesses so often you will write up what symptoms are present and what symptoms are not present from illnesses to demonstrate you have indeed assessed for all illnesses which could be impacting your patient. For example, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, bipolar symptoms, psychosis symptoms, substance use, etc.)

    EXEMPLAR BEGINS HERE

    **CC** (chief complaint): A
    brief statement identifying why the patient is here. This statement is verbatim of the patient’s own words about why presenting for assessment. For a patient with dementia or other cognitive deficits, this statement can be obtained from a family member.

    **HPI**: Begin this section with patient’s initials, age, race, gender, purpose of evaluation, current medication and referral reason. For example:

    N.M. is a 34-year-old Asian male presents for psychiatric evaluation for anxiety. He is currently prescribed sertraline which he finds ineffective. His PCP referred him for evaluation and treatment.

    Or

    P.H., a 16-year-old Hispanic female, presents for psychiatric evaluation for concentration difficulty. She is not currently prescribed psychotropic medications. She is referred by her therapist for medication evaluation and treatment.

    Then, this section continues with the symptom analysis for your note. Thorough documentation in this section is essential for patient care, coding, and billing analysis.

    Paint a picture of what is wrong with the patient. First what is bringing the patient to your evaluation. Then, include a PSYCHIATRIC REVIEW OF SYMPTOMS. The symptoms onset, duration, frequency, severity, and impact. Your description here will guide your differential diagnoses. You are seeking symptoms that may align with many DSM-5-TR diagnoses, narrowing to what aligns with diagnostic criteria for mental health and substance use disorders.

    **Past Psychiatric History**: This section documents the patient’s past treatments. Use the mnemonic
    **G** o
    **Ch** a
    **MP.**

    **G** eneral Statement: Typically, this is a statement of the patients first treatment experience. For example: The patient entered treatment at the age of 10 with counseling for depression during her parents’ divorce. OR The patient entered treatment for detox at age 26 after abusing alcohol since age 13.

    **C** aregivers are listed if applicable.

    **H** ospitalizations: How many hospitalizations? When and where was last hospitalization? How many detox? How many residential treatments? When and where was last detox/residential treatment? Any history of suicidal or homicidal behaviors? Any history of self-harm behaviors?

    **M** edication trials: What are the previous psychotropic medications the patient has tried and what was their reaction? Effective, Not Effective, Adverse Reaction? Some examples: Haloperidol (dystonic reaction), risperidone (hyperprolactinemia), olanzapine (effective, insurance wouldn’t pay for it)

    **P** sychotherapy or
    **P** revious Psychiatric Diagnosis: This section can be completed one of two ways depending on what you want to capture to support the evaluation. First, does the patient know what type? Did they find psychotherapy helpful or not? Why? Second, what are the previous diagnosis for the client noted from previous treatments and other providers. Thirdly, you could document both.

    **Substance Use History:** This section contains any history or current use of caffeine, nicotine, illicit substance (including marijuana), and alcohol. Include the daily amount of use and last known use. Include type of use such as inhales, snorts, IV, etc. Include any histories of withdrawal complications from tremors, Delirium Tremens, or seizures.

    **Family Psychiatric/Substance Use History:** This section contains any family history of psychiatric illness, substance use illnesses, and family suicides. You may choose to use a genogram to depict this information. Be sure to include a reader’s key to your genogram or write up in narrative form.

    **Social History:** This section may be lengthy if completing an evaluation for psychotherapy or shorter if completing an evaluation for psychopharmacology. However, at a minimum, please include:

    Where patient was born, who raised the patient

    Number of brothers/sisters (what order is the patient within siblings)

    Who the patient currently lives with in a home? Are they single, married, divorced, widowed? How many children?

    Educational Level

    Hobbies:

    Work History: currently working/profession, disabled, unemployed, retired?

    Legal history: past hx, any current issues?

    Trauma history: Any childhood or adult history of trauma?

    Violence Hx:
    Concern or issues about safety (personal, home, community, sexual (current & historical)

    **Medical History:** This section contains any illnesses, surgeries, include any hx of seizures, head injuries.

    **Current Medications**: Include dosage, frequency, length of time used, and reason for use. Also include OTC or homeopathic products.

    **Allergies**:
    Include medication, food, and environmental allergies separately. Provide a description of what the allergy is (e.g., angioedema, anaphylaxis). This will help determine a true reaction vs. intolerance.

    **Reproductive Hx**:
    Menstrual history (date of LMP), Pregnant (yes or no), Nursing/lactating (yes or no), contraceptive use (method used), types of intercourse: oral, anal, vaginal, other, any sexual concerns

    **ROS**: Cover all body systems that may help you include or rule out a differential diagnosis. Please note: THIS IS DIFFERENT from a physical examination!

    You should list each system as follows:
    General:Head:
    EENT: etc. You should list these in bullet format and document the systems in order from head to toe.

    Example of Complete ROS:

    GENERAL: No weight loss, fever, chills, weakness, or fatigue.

    HEENT: Eyes: No visual loss, blurred vision, double vision, or yellow sclerae. Ears, Nose, Throat: No hearing loss, sneezing, congestion, runny nose, or sore throat.

    SKIN: No rash or itching.

    GASTROINTESTINAL: No anorexia, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. No abdominal pain or blood.

    GENITOURINARY: Burning on urination, urgency, hesitancy, odor, odd color

    NEUROLOGICAL: No headache, dizziness, syncope, paralysis, ataxia, numbness, or tingling in the extremities. No change in bowel or bladder control.

    MUSCULOSKELETAL: No muscle, back pain, joint pain, or stiffness.

    HEMATOLOGIC: No anemia, bleeding, or bruising.

    LYMPHATICS: No enlarged nodes. No history of splenectomy.

    ENDOCRINOLOGIC: No reports of sweating, cold, or heat intolerance. No polyuria or polydipsia.

    **Physical exam (If applicable and if you have opportunity to perform—document if exam is completed by PCP)**: From head to toe, include what you see, hear, and feel when doing your physical exam. You only need to examine the systems that are pertinent to the CC, HPI, and History.
    **Do not use “WNL” or “normal.” You must describe what you see.** Always document in head-to-toe format i.e., General: Head: EENT: etc.

    **Diagnostic results**: Include any labs, X-rays, or other diagnostics that are needed to develop the differential diagnoses (support with evidenced and guidelines).

    **A** ssessment

    **Mental Status Examination:** For the purposes of your courses, this section must be presented in paragraph form and not use of a checklist! This section you will describe the patient’s appearance, attitude, behavior, mood and affect, speech, thought processes, thought content, perceptions (hallucinations, pseudohallucinations, illusions, etc.)., cognition, insight, judgment, and SI/HI. See an example below. You will modify to include the specifics for your patient on the above elements—DO NOT just copy the example. You may use a preceptor’s way of organizing the information if the MSE is in paragraph form.

    He is an 8-year-old African American male who looks his stated age. He is cooperative with examiner. He is neatly groomed and clean, dressed appropriately. There is no evidence of any abnormal motor activity. His speech is clear, coherent, normal in volume and tone. His thought process is goal directed and logical.

His recent and remote memory is intact. His concentration is good. His insight is good.

    **Differential Diagnoses**:
    You must have at least three differentials with supporting evidence. Explain what rules each differential in or out and justify your primary diagnostic impression selection. You will use supporting evidence from the literature to support your rationale. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.

    **Also included in this section is the reflection.** Reflect on this case and discuss whether or not you agree with your preceptor’s assessment and diagnostic impression of the patient and why or why not. What did you learn from this case? What would you do differently?

    Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (
    **demonstrating critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!**), social determinates of health, health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).

    **References (move to begin on next page)**

    You are required to include at least three evidence-based, peer-reviewed journal articles or evidenced-based guidelines which relate to this case to support your diagnostics and differentials diagnoses. Be sure to use correct APA 7th edition formatting.

    Assignment Prompt & Instructions

    The purpose of this assignment is for students to identify and discuss different leadership theories exemplified in business leaders. Students will also describe power bases leaders use to resolve challenges and explain behaviors that leaders should demonstrate or avoid in order to be successful. Specifically, identify one business leader you either know personally or are able to gain access to for the purpose of conducting an interview who meets the following criteria:

    – The leader may be a former or current manager, educational leader, civic/business leader (including for nonprofits), coaching staff, or religious leader.
    – The leader must have served in a managerial capacity for at least 3 years within an organization or department with at least 10 employees.
    – The leader may refer to their current job or a previous job as long as the experience meets the criteria noted above.
    – Please note that your chosen leader must first be approved by your instructor if you have not already received approval prior to starting this topic.

    This interview can take place virtually over video conference (e.g., Zoom) or in person. For assistance on using Zoom and recording with Zoom, which you will need for Part III of this assignment, refer to the "Zoom" resources information, located in the Topic 6 Resources.

    _**Part I: Preparing for and Conducting the Interview**_

    In advance of the interview, be sure to read and understand the presentation guidelines below and be prepared to ask additional/follow-up questions to ensure that information adequate enough to address each point has been retrieved. For example, you would not necessarily want to ask a leader about the power base(s) they have utilized, as they may not know what you are talking about, but you will want to have enough information pertaining to how the leader handled their challenge to articulate which power base(s) you believe they used.

    Additionally, refer the attached "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template prior to the interview to review the skills and characteristics associated with servant leadership and the entrepreneurial mindset. Use the first three worksheet tabs of this "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template to automatically calculate the scores your leaders receive for each concept. Note that during the interview, you will walk through these assessments with the interviewee and fill it out as you talk through the questions together. _**Do not give the template to the interviewee and expect them to fill it out independently.**_

    _Evidence of the Interview and Conducting the Interview_

    As you conduct the interview, take thorough notes. _**Your supporting documentation should reflect a brief response of a minimum of two to three sentences for each question covered.**_ You will see that the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template contains a section for you to include your notes.

    As an alternative option, you may record the interview instead of taking physical notes so that you may refer back to it as you complete the remaining parts of the assignment. _**Students must receive permission from the interviewee to record the interview.**_ The recording (audio or video) can be submitted in lieu of written notes via a sharable link.

    _**In addition to your own insights, note that throughout the PowerPoint slides and the speaker notes, you will need to provide cited documentation to justify any factual statements made and to support your positions. Review "Assignment Submission Guidelines," located in the Class Resources. Remember that PDFs are not an acceptable format.**_

    Address all of the following questions with your interviewee:

    _Background Information:_

    Address the basics with your interviewee:

    – Who are you?
    – Where do you work? How long have you been there in your role?

    _Interview Topics:_

    Reflect upon either your current job or a previous one:

    1. Which industry is/was representative of the organization, what is/was your role, and how long have you been or were you in that position?
    2. Consider your greatest career achievement in that role. Provide details, including the time period and the persons, products, and services involved. What management principles, strategies, or processes did you employ that you believe led to this effective organizational outcome? Why do you consider this achievement to have been so impactful? Refer to "1. Part A – Servant Leadership" of the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template and rate each characteristic that your interviewee used in realizing their greatest achievement. Please provide an example.
    3. Consider one significant challenge, preferably one with an ethical dilemma, you previously faced in that role. How did you handle it, and what was the outcome? Provide details including the time period, persons, products, services, competition, market conditions, etc. that may have been involved. Refer to "2. Part B – Servant Leadership" of the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template and rate each characteristic that your interviewee used in overcoming their significant challenge. Please provide an example.
    4. What was the mission, vision, and strategy of the organization, and how were they accomplished? How essential is the entrepreneurial mindset in achieving the mission, vision, and strategy of the organization? Refer to "3. Part C – Entrepreneurial Mindset" of the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template and rate each trait that your interviewee used in demonstrating an entrepreneurial mindset. Please provide an example.
    5. Apart from servant leadership and the entrepreneurial mindset, please identify two significant lessons/attributes that are essential for success. Describe anything you wish you would have specifically avoided that may have derailed or delayed your success?

    _Deliverables:_

    The following deliverables will need to be included in your final submission for this part of the assignment within the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template for these four tabs.

    1. Part A – Servant Leadership
    2. Part B – Servant Leadership
    3. Part C – Entrepreneurial Mindset
    4. Evidence of the Interview

    _**Part II: Leadership Comparison**_

    In preparation for Part III, you will conduct research to compare the leadership style used by your selected leader (interviewed in Part I) with the style of a well-known business leader from the attached "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template in the "6. Comparison Leaders List" tab. Your selected leader should be in the same industry (e.g., technology, finance, hospitality, etc.) as the leader chosen for comparison. Investigate the strengths and weaknesses of both leadership styles. Your analysis will be presented in the "Leadership Style Comparison" and "Leadership Lessons" sections of the Part III: Presentation.

    If you would like to compare your leader to a leader not provided on the "6. Comparison Leaders List" tab, the selection must first be approved by your instructor.

    _**Part III: Presentation**_

    Create a PowerPoint presentation of 10-12 slides (including a title slide and references slide) and then record a video presentation using Zoom, sharing your screen with the slides showing and also with at least your face showing as you present. Note that points will be deducted for audio-only submissions. Make sure to keep the following details in mind for your submission:

    – Given that you are required to have 10-12 slides, the time for the video should be about 10-12 minutes, so there will be a point deduction for going above or below that range.
    – As the digital classroom does not support large file sizes, you will need first save your Zoom recording and create a digital link. Refer to "Zoom," located in the Topic 6 Resources for specific guidance on this process. When you receive the link, embed it into the title slide of your presentation, which you will upload to the digital classroom.
    – All content slides must include developed speaker notes in which you fully explain your ideas presented on the slides.

    The first seven sections outlined below are based upon your interview above in Part I in addition to your corresponding research. Address the following in your presentation under the appropriate headings:

    _Business Leader Description_

    – Identify the leader and justify the selection of that particular leader.
    – Discuss the organizations with which the leader is affiliated and the industry in which that the leader is most recognized.
    – Discuss how long the leader has been in a leadership position.

    _Greatest Career Achievement of Leader_

    – Describe the leader's greatest career achievement(s).
    – Provide justification on why this achievement was so impactful. Include which management principles, strategies, or processes they employed that led to this effective organizational outcome and improved stakeholder satisfaction.
    – Using the attached "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template, complete the scoring in the "1. Part A – Servant Leadership" worksheet based on your conversation with your leader. Use the Likert scale provided to evaluate the extent to which the respondent (i.e., the interviewed leader) applied servant leadership characteristics when the respondent experienced the greatest success. Review the leader's score earned for each characteristic in this area and provide an explanation of how these elements relate to the leader's greatest career achievement.

    _Handling a Challenge_

    – Identify the significant career challenge the leader faced.
    – Explain how the leader handled the challenge.
    – Based on your perspective, differentiate whether the response aligns more with a managerial role or a leadership role.
    – Using the attached "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template, complete the scoring in the "2. Part B – Servant Leadership" worksheet based on your conversation with your leader. Use the Likert scale provided to evaluate the extent to which the respondent (i.e., the interviewed leader) applied servant leadership characteristics when the respondent experienced the most significant challenge. Review the leader's score earned for each characteristic in this area and provide an explanation of how it relates to the handling of the challenge.

    _Power Bases and Impact of Behavior_

    – Based upon the responses received in Item 3 of Part I (above), describe which power base(s) you feel the leader utilized in handling or resolving the challenge and justify your choice.
    – Discuss the impact of the leader's behavior on the situation based on the power base demonstrated.

    _Mission, Vision, Strategy, and Entrepreneurial Mindset_

    – Using the attached "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template, complete the scoring in the "3. Part C – Entrepreneurial Mindset" worksheet based on your conversation with your interviewee. Use the Likert scale provided, rate the extent to which the interviewee (i.e., the interviewed leader) possesses an entrepreneurial mindset.
    – Explain the association between possessing an entrepreneurial mindset with achieving the organization's mission, vision, and strategy.

    _Application of Leadership Theory_

    – Discuss which leadership theory, model, style, or behavior best describes the chosen leader's approach to leading people.

    _Leadership Style Comparison_

    – Compare the leadership style used by your selected leader in Part II with the style of the selected, well-known business leader in the same industry.
    – Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of both leadership styles.

    The next two sections below are based upon your research on your selected leader in Part II as well as the lessons learned in the interview in Part I.

    _Leadership Lessons_

    – Identify and explain three characteristics that a leader should demonstrate or avoid in order to be successful.
    – Provide justification for the characteristics selected.

    _Critical Reflection of the Interview and Research Processes_

    – Why did you choose to interview the leader in Part I, and why did you choose the selected leader in Part II?
    – What additional or follow-up questions did you ask in order to arrive at the responses you provided within your presentation? For example, how did you prompt responses from your interviewee to answer questions about less common concepts, such as "Generalized Self Efficacy," "Internal Locus of Control," or "Healing"?
    – Provide a short reflection of what you learned from this interview and research process, including any challenges you faced and how you overcame them.

    _**General Requirements**_

    You are required to submit the following deliverables:

    – From Part I: The completed "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template for "1. Part A – Servant Leadership," "2. Part B – Servant Leadership," and "3. Part C – Entrepreneurial Mindset" tabs.
    – From Part I: In the "4. Evidence of Interview" tab within the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template, include your interview documentation (i.e., paste in your notes or a picture of the manual notes you took) or a link to the recorded interview file.
    – From Part III: PowerPoint presentation with detailed speaker notes within the designated notes sections. These robust, detailed speaker notes are required to support and explain the bullet points in each slide. Include scholarly support to validate your position and be sure to cite any charts or graphs included in your presentation and speaker notes.
    – From Part III: The link to your recorded presentation should be on the title slide of your presentation and in the "5. Recorded Presentation Link" tab of the "Contemporary Business Leader Materials" template. The recorded presentation needs to include video and audio recording for each member of the team while also advancing through the slide presentation.

    You are required to use at least two external scholarly sources in addition to the textbook to provide evidence in support of the leadership style displayed by the selected leader. The rationale should be justified; this should not be completed based on an opinion. These sources must be cited in-text (i.e., parenthetically within the presentation), in addition to providing a references list at the end of the presentation.

    Refer to the resource, "Creating Effective PowerPoint Presentations," located in the Student Success Center, for additional guidance on completing this assignment in the appropriate style.

    While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

    This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

    You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. A link to the LopesWrite technical support articles is located in Class Resources if you need assistance.
