Description

Week 7: How Does The World See You?

Introduction

It is important for a leader in an organization to pursue a path of continuous professional development and improvement. A substantial part of this endeavor includes self-awareness with regards to how the leader views the external environment. But more importantly, how does the world see the organization’s leader and their role and efforts? This assignment will afford you the opportunity to reflect on your own cognizance with regards to diversity, equity, inclusion and your own identity as a leader.

Take a bit of time to read and review the four columns of questions. Also, ponder the information and ideas that have been presented and discussed thus far in our course. Think about your own efforts as a leader (either in a private/personal setting or in a corporate setting). Then, jot-down some bullet-points that are responses to the questions presented.

Second, prepare a three-to-five-page paper that answers the questions presented in the exercise. Consider your own Identity as well as understanding of Diversity and the impact it continues to have in your life and the organizations that you are affiliated with. In essence, how does the world see you?
