Describe a situation you experienced or witnessed in the workplace when a current or past supervisor used a transformational approach to motivate their employees. Was it effective? What about the supervisor’s behaviors marked them as a transformational leader?

In this assignment, your critical-thinking skills will be assessed. The critical-thinking rubric will be useful for this purpose. In this course, MGT401, critical-thinking skills will be assessed at the “introduced” level. In MGT420, they are assessed at the “reinforced” level. Finally, in MGT422 your critical thinking skills will be assessed at the “emphasized” level. The grading rubric for critical-thinking skills at the undergraduate level has been developed to measure student success in meeting the MGT401 SLP 3 expectations. Rubrics for the other two courses are included in their respective assignments.
Before starting this assignment, be sure that you are familiar with what is meant by “critical thinking.”
Critical thinking is one of the five key rubric criteria by which your assignments are graded. Therefore, you are expected to demonstrate evidence of critical thinking in all assignments. The following might help you to learn the concept of critical thinking.

For the Module 3 SLP assignment, you will apply the concepts from the background materials to your own personal experiences. You can write about the same supervisor you wrote about in Modules 1 and 2, or choose a different supervisor that you worked with and got to know well.
Carefully review the concepts and definitions of charismatic, transformational, and transactional leadership. Then write a 
2- to 3-page paper (which means at least 2 full pages) and include at least two scholarly peer-reviewed sources from the Trident Online Library or the assignment background materials addressing the following issues using specific examples from your personal experiences:

1. Describe a situation you experienced or witnessed in the workplace when a current or past supervisor used a 
transformational approach to motivate their employees. Was it effective? What about the supervisor’s behaviors marked them as a transformational leader?

2. Describe a situation you experienced or witnessed in the workplace when a current or past supervisor used a charismatic approach to motivate their employees. Was it effective? What about the supervisor’s behaviors marked them as a charismatic leader?
3. Describe a situation you experienced or witnessed in the workplace when a current or past supervisor used a 
transactional approach to motivate their employees. Was it effective? What about the supervisor’s behaviors marked them as a transactional leader?

4. Based on what you’ve read for this class so far as well as from your own experience working with different supervisors, which approach, transformational, charismatic, or transactional leadership is more effective as a leadership style in your organization?
To support your answers, use both of the following: your personal experiences and at least 2 scholarly sources from the required or optional readings list. 
1. Your SLP should be 2 – 3 pages in length (not including title and reference pages). This means the submission must be at least 2 full pages. It must include an introduction below the paper’s title prior to the answer to the first assignment question and a Conclusion on the last page before the References list page. There should be nothing in the top left corner of the paper and only a page number in the top right corner of all pages.
2. Be sure to cite and reference (using APA Style) a minimum of 2 scholarly sources listed in the Course Materials and Bibliography (Module 3 Required and Optional Reading List), in the Module 3 Background Page: Required and Optional Readings, or in the Trident Online Library (peer-reviewed journal articles)..
3. Upload your paper to the SLP 3 Dropbox before the assignment due date.
4. Include both a reference page and in-text citations. Citation and reference style instructions are available at Trident University’s

Explain how school counselors promote social justice through the implementation of an ASCA National Model-based school counseling program.
As school counselors we have to make sure we are keeping up with world events and social rights that are occurring around us. Not just Statewide but world events that are even going on in our own city. When we do this we have a better chance of connecting with our students and helping our school as a whole. According to the ASCA model guides school counselors in the development of school counseling programs that:

 are based on data-informed decision making
 are delivered to all students systematically
include a developmentally appropriate curriculum focused on the mindsets and behaviors all students need for postsecondary readiness and success
close achievement and opportunity gaps
result in improved student achievement, attendance and discipline

Discuss how social justice is embedded throughout the four components of the ASCA National Model and provide specific examples.
Define: Establishes student and professional standards that a counseling program should follow. 
Manage: Used to gather data and adjust the program to meet the needs of the students and the school in a data-driven application. 
Deliver : Provides a school counselor with resources to help students reach their goals as well as resolve conflicts that may arise. 
Assess: Assist school counselors to improve their program and evaluate their personal growth throughout the program development process.
With these four components, school counselors have to educate themselves on appropriate trauma responses in an effort to not cause further distress to students who feel ashamed of their diversity or feel as if social justice hasn’t been done. We can talk about social justice all day but if nothing is being done it leaves open the possibility for more trauma to develop or resurface. We must take a proactive approach to work with students after racial incidents occur. School counselors must put into action the ASCA themes of leadership, advocacy, collaboration and systemic change. If your efforts are not continuous and purposeful in addressing systemic issues, a process necessary for systemic change, then you are not working to solve many of the problems that have preceded and contributed to our current climate.
Explain the role data plays in advocating for social justice within your school counseling program.
Without data you cannot have effective change. I believe as school counselors data is the backbone of a school counseling program . Using data establishes trust in your school counseling program. Data brings validity to what you’re already doing and what your future goals are within the program. When you have data to back you up you’re more likely to be trusted and succeed in social justice and diversity.

Explain how school counselors promote social justice through the implementation of an ASCA National Model-based school counseling program.
School counselors can promote social justice through utilizing current  global events, and social rights activities throughout our communities and the world.  The ASCA model guides school counselors in developing school counseling programs utilizing data-informed decision making that are based on data-informed decision making to close opportunity gaps that result in hire student achievement delivered systematically in developmentally appropriate curriculum that supports student behavior and mindsets to support student success.
Discuss how social justice is embedded throughout the four components of the ASCA National Model and provide specific examples.
Define
The ASCA National Model’s  Define section Provides details on developing a School counseling program that aligns with the vision and mission of the school which also includes Professional Standards and the development of student competencies.( ASCA) Social justice can be implemented by Advocating for others and oneself, developing equity and inclusion practices in student competencies that demonstrate How an individual and group identity was greatly impacted by diversity. The development of Professional Standards that focus on and promote social justice within the school learning community. 
Manage: This component is utilized to gather data and make informed decisions to improve programs to meet the needs of current students.
Deliver : This section provides resources to school counselors that assist students in resolving conflicts and reaching personal and academic goals.
Assess: The program development process supports school counselors in improving their programs through evaluation of personal growth.  
It is essential for school counselors to seek further education on ways to appropriately respond to trauma that students experience due to the lack of social justice or challenges with diversity. Action has to be taken to prevent further trauma for students. School counselors must be proactive in working with students in regards to social justice issues. Continuous and purposeful actions are necessary to address systemic issues through the ASCA themes of systemic change, collaboration, advocacy, and leadership.
Explain the role data plays in advocating for social justice within your school counseling program.
The foundation of School counseling is effective data analysis  to begin to create change in a school environment. Trust can be established in a school counseling program through the effective use of data driven informed decision making. This will create a more trusted and successful setting to improve in the areas of diversity and social justice.you’re more likely to be trusted and succeed in social justice and diversity.

Think about some of the leaders in your life and career. Do you think they are good leaders? Bad leaders? A little bit of both? How much of your assessment of their leadership effectiveness is tied to the leader’s communication patterns?

Getting Started

Take a moment and think about some of the leaders in your life and career. Do you think they are good leaders? Bad leaders? A little bit of both?
How much of your assessment of their leadership effectiveness is tied to the leader’s communication patterns? Do they listen or ignore? Are they inspiring or defeating? Do they energize or de-energize? Are they critical or supportive? How do they make you feel about yourself?
Often, much of how we assess our leaders has a communication component to it. Communication can be complex, especially at the organizational level. However, becoming a better communicator can be a key “tool” to become a better organizational leader.

Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:

· Articulate the key challenges and opportunities for effective organizational communication.

Background Information

Communication is often considered the glue that holds organizations together. It binds all of the parts together so that leaders and members can achieve the organizational mission. One important idea about communication is that we are always doing it. Even choosing not to communicate is communicating “something.” For that reason, within the organizational context the question is not whether communication is occurring. In many ways, an organization “is” communication. Rather, the key question is how well or how effectively we are communicating. Lots of factors can influence communication effectiveness. For example, organizations with tall hierarchies have unique communication characteristics when compared to organizations that are more decentralized or flatter. Issues also can emerge when we consider the difference between formal and informal communication. Within any organization, there are barriers to good communication as well as habits, interventions, or skills to promote good communication and a productive organization.
