    1. Describe the issue you selected. Provide data to support how this issue impacts the quality of care in the setting in which it occurs.

    3. Select the most appropriate leadership style to address the issue. Provide a rationale for your choice and compare this style to your personal leadership style.
    4. Compare two different leadership theories that could be applied to resolve the issue. Explain how each theory would be effective in addressing the issue.
    5. Explain the nurse’s role within an interdisciplinary team in promoting patient quality and safety while fostering professionalism to address this issue.
