  • Title: “Applying Leadership Principles in a Real-Life Situation: A Learning Project Report” Title: Leadership Development: Learning, Reflection, and Growth

    Word limit: 4000 words
    Your final piece of assessment is your learning project report. 
    This should build on your learning project plan, but you will not be held to anything that you have included in your original learning project plan. The total length is to be approximately 4000 words (without references).
    The Learning project
    is an integral part of the learning process of the course. Real learning does
    not happen until ideas are put into practice and tested. It is important
    that students not only learn in the workshop settings of the course, but also
    students “learn by doing”.  The learning project challenges
    students to plan and conduct a project where they apply principles and
    practices of leadership in a “real life” situation.  This could
    include activities such as enhancing your leadership practice with an existing
    group or organisation, working with existing leaders, or contributing to a
    leadership initiative.  The learning project can be based on a workplace
    or community situation incorporating your normal work or interests. There
    is also sound evidence that leadership is best learned in personal situations.
    An excellent project
    would include:
    Consideration
    of new concepts and skills learnt that stand out for you.
    Test
    several new leadership skills and concepts in a small, low-effort, real
    world situation during semester, to gain new insights, Identify what you
    might do to design or re-design future work to show how you will apply new
    skills and concepts to get better results
    Not all students may
    be able to conduct an active project directly with a current group or leader.
    There are various other options (least preferred since these offers you
    less practical learning).  For example, with the input and approval of the
    course facilitator, a learning project could be based on one of the following
    activities:
    Observe
    a situation appropriate to leadership and analyse it using the relevant
    concepts, frameworks and techniques from the course
    Review,
    analyse and redesign a past activity or leadership situation from your
    experience.
    Time is set aside
    during the early workshops or zoom meetings for students to develop their
    learning project plan with guidance from the course facilitator. Please discuss
    your options with the facilitator. During the semester, please contact the
    course facilitator if you have any questions or need any guidance with your
    learning project. Module One slides and papers provided in Learning Resources
    area offer example situations in which past students have practised and
    developed their leadership skills.
    Participants must
    submit a written report on their learning project. Full instructions will be
    given and discussed early in the semester. Your learning project report should
    build on your learning project plan but you won’t be held to anything that you
    included in your original learning project plan. You need to layout your
    learning project report in the way that you feel is best. Using the four phases
    of the Learning Cycle can be a useful framework for describing your learning
    process. The following is a possible format for your learning project report,
    but you may choose to do it another way provided that it includes sufficient
    content.
    Possible
    Format
    Introduction
    Briefly outline what
    issue, problem or opportunity your learning project addresses. Describe why
    your learning project is important and relevant.
    Context
    Brief detail of the
    background in which you are operating as it pertains to the learning project. This
    situation analysis need not be extensive but should cover the main points that
    make your learning project important in your work context.  You need to have a clear, logical description
    of the issues, problem or opportunity that your learning project addresses. This
    need to be clearly connected to the context and the learning objectives of your
    project.
    Objectives
    Provide a succinct
    statement of what you sought to achieve with your learning project. These
    should include your own learning objectives for your leadership development.
    Activities
    Briefly describe how
    you conducted your learning project. Don’t just list actions, describe the
    logic of what you did and why. Describe what happened – how things went doing
    your project. Describe what occurred as a result of your learning project such
    as what changed in the situation, what benefits occurred, how a desired outcome
    was achieved or not achieved, and importantly, what you learned from testing
    and improving your leadership practice. Describe the principles of leadership
    that relate to approach to the project – these may be from the course content,
    from readings or other literature or principles that you feel are
    important from your own experience. Describe how you know that what you did was
    leadership and not management, particularly by comparing your action to the
    Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership (Kouzes and Posner) and the course
    definition for leadership.
    Critically reflect on
    leadership based on what occurred during your project and draw out insights
    into leadership. Are there any aspects of rural leadership that you think are
    particularly important because of your experiences with your project? Describe
    whether you achieved the objectives of your project and if not, what prevented
    you from achieving them. Detail what you learned, including improved
    confidence, understanding and skills in leadership, and contrast this with
    principles and approaches to leadership. Discuss what you would do the same and
    differently next time. This section should be a major part of your report and
    make sure that you include references.
    Conclusion
    Draw together the
    main implications of your learning project and how your new insights and
    improved leadership skills can be used to get better outcomes in your life.

    The Change Cycle Overview
    Looking for answers to our many questions about the human experience of change, we found plenty of data from fields such as psychology, neurology, physiology, even physics. Much of it was fascinating, but the technical language made it less than fully useful for the average change sufferer. So, we condensed our findings into the more easily understood and practical Change Cycle™ model.
    When you look at the model below, it’s a circle, and it represents the true cyclical nature of each change we experience. In the outside ring are the six sequential and predictable stages of change. The names of the stages: Loss, Doubt, Discomfort, Discovery, Understanding and Integration, indicate the primary experience of that stage. The inside pie pieces list the thoughts, feelings and behaviors most associated with the stage.
    The Change Cycle™ uses the colors of a traffic light to signal that the stages mirror the actions we take at traffic lights. The Change Cycle™model is a map that depicts our human experience of each stage of change – in all changes, big or small, good or bad.
    Stage 1: Loss To Safety
    Stage 2: Doubt To Reality
    Stage 3: Discomfort To Motivation
    Stage 4: Discovery To Perspective
    Stage 5: Understanding To Awareness
    Stage 6: Integration To Flexibility
    Change comes in all shapes, sizes, and intensities. It happens to all of us. Sometimes it sneaks up on us, sometimes it hits us over the head, sometimes we are lucky enough to choose when and how it happens. But it always happens. By integrating basic, positive attitudes and beliefs about change and combining them with the right skills (or tools), any of us can learn to adapt and grow in changing environments and situations. Is it easy? Not usually. Like any new activity or function, it takes a while to get used to it, but over time, we learn and integrate, and then do it without thinking. By understanding The Change Cycle™, you can learn to better manage your life by managing the changes.
