LEADERSHIP STYLES AND DEVELOPMENT
Grand Canyon
NUR 600 week 1 Discussion 2
The concept of leadership as a “vocation” greatly distinguishes
leadership from a job, career, or what one simply does for a living. A vocation
can be thought of as one’s calling. Vocation is often associated with the
clergy or missionaries who feel called by a higher power to fulfill a specific
purpose. Vocation is also a concept associated with careers like teachers,
emergency responders, doctors, or other health care professionals who feel
strongly compelled to dedicate their own lives to improving the lives of those
whom they serve. Consider your own view of leadership. How does understanding
leadership as a vocation inform your understanding of the personal and moral
commitments required of leaders? If leadership is not a job, but a calling,
what responsibilities do leaders have towards their position, their
organization, and their followers?
NUR 600 Week 1 Discussion 2
Leadership is a complex process that requires leaders to
critically appraise the circumstances in which they find themselves to best
determine how to lead and influence those around them. There are multiple
tactics a leader can employ in any given circumstance to influence a situation
or their followers. Compare two leaders you have dealt with in the past. What
different tactics did these leaders employ to influence situations or people?
Which tactics were successful? Which tactics were not successful? As a leader,
how can you critically appraise situations to make sure you select appropriate
tactics for influencing a given situation?

Today’s complex organizations often require the smooth, integrated
functioning of teams across several functional areas. Leading of a team of
