Part I: Complete the Grossman and Valiga Leadership Characteristics and Skill Assessment Tool (parts I & II). Then complete below:

Perception of your own ability to lead – Post score and interpretation statement
Reflect on your findings from the Grossman and Valiga Assessment Tool. Write a short statement on the following question:
I was surprised /or/ not surprised by the findings on my perception of what makes a good leader and my perception of my own ability to lead.
Part II: Answer the questions that follow in paragraph format (1-2 paragraphs for each) using the readings for context and citations.
While the Covid pandemic has had a significant impact on the public's image of nurses, think about the main point in the article that the nursing profession itself contributes to the negative image of nurses (Childlike and/or gender biased).
1. Did you have an awareness of these issues around nursing’s image and their impact on the nursing profession?
2. What do you think about this problem?
Think this is a thing of the past – Look for yourself:
Using GOGGLE Image – Type in “National Nurses Week” and see the images that come up. Check out how many hearts and cartoons there are, mostly focused only on "caring". Now, type in Covid and Nurses and note the difference. Include a brief comment in your post on what you noted.
Note: This first case study allows for more of your opinion but when you include in-text citations (at least 1 or 2 required) when paraphrasing/referencing something specific from the article you need to use APA format. You also need to use APA for the reference list at the end of your post.
