Assignment:<\/p>\n

In our program, we are fortunate to have students and instructors from various disciplines \u2013 some are direct healthcare practitioners, some are corporate healthcare leaders, and some are in other human services<\/p>\n

functions such as social services and public education. Still others come from many other backgrounds.<\/p>\n

This diversity is one of the things that makes the VUL DHA program so dynamic. The most important part<\/p>\n

of our diversity is that in one way or another, each of you comes from a background of making the world a better place for people.<\/p>\n

DHA 803: Leadership and Professional Issues<\/p>\n

Dr. Wodicka \u2013 Fall 2024<\/p>\n

One of the things we discuss during this term is the importance of recognizing, as a leader, how you substantively contribute to a larger mission through your actions \u2013 and how a system of actions makes positive impacts on the world. Regardless of your positional title (we have CEOs and front leaders alike in our program), as leaders, each of you are obligated to make your organization, community, and the world a better place through your actions. The purpose of the final exercise is to think about your team and your role in the world and how you can make significant progress on an issue about which you care greatly.<\/p>\n

The United Nations describes its Sustainable Development Goals (or SDGs) in the following way: \u201can urgent call for action by all countries – developed and developing – in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth \u2013 all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.\u201d<\/p>\n

The SDGs provide a list of global goals that can apply to many of the fields in which each of you work. More importantly, we should think about how actions in our own organizations substantively contribute to the larger goals described in the SDGs \u2013 each of us have to contribute in our own, even sometimes small, way to make them successful. For example, none of us can solve global poverty individually, but working to solve poverty in our own community helps towards that global goal. For this project, you should choose one of the Sustainable Development Goals and develop a <\/span>radical<\/b> <\/span>plan to make progress on this issue from where you sit in your specific organization, whatever that organization may be. You should research this goal on the UN SDG website (https:\/\/sdgs.un.org\/goals) and choose one issue in one of the goals to improve.<\/p>\n

You should consider, as a component of your thought process, the Systems Practice Workbook from Week 1 (available on Moodle).<\/p>\n

Please note that you are invited, and expected, to dream and think big, but you must have a clear and focused target audience and a very specific plan. Please note that I\u2019m looking for direct impacts and, as such,<\/p>\n

proposing informational campaigns alone is not sufficient as a radical idea<\/i><\/b>, nor are descriptions of existing programs. Finally, I\u2019m asking you to think outside the box and do something different from what\u2019s been done before. Therefore, proposing COVID-19-specific interventions like vaccinations clinics or informational campaigns are not sufficient for this exercise (that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t address other follow-along issues like provider burnout or the now known lack of quality public health capacity in many localities).<\/p>\n

The final paper is a 2000-word report which will present an idea for a project your team at your work can undertake to make progress on one of the UN\u2019s Sustainable Development Goals. Ideally, you should address how this can be implemented in the fastest and most effective way possible. This report should have your organization\u2019s leadership as the audience in mind but requires a <\/span>very<\/b> <\/span>limited introduction to the organization as needed for non-local audiences. Your report <\/span>should include the following components and<\/i><\/b> <\/span>structure<\/i><\/b> <\/span>(the word limits for each line are just a guideline \u2013 you may deviate from this as necessary, but this gives you a general understanding of the detail with which you should address each topic):<\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 1 \u2013 Introduction:<\/b> <\/span>Brief introduction to your organization and\/or team. <\/span>(100 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 2 \u2013 Sustainable Development Goal:<\/b> <\/span>A brief description of the SDG that your report<\/p>\n

will consider and your radical idea for accomplishing that goal. (300 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 3 \u2013 The Problem and the Solutions \u2013<\/b> <\/span>A brief discussion of the problem that you\u2019re<\/p>\n

trying to solve and a brief description of what your proposed solutions will be <\/span>(350 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 4 \u2013 Logic Model:<\/b> <\/span>A refined logic model of the existing policy or plan which<\/p>\n

sketches out the key assumptions related to its inputs, outputs, outcomes and impact. See7Virginia University of Lynchburg<\/p>\n

DHA 803: Leadership and Professional Issues<\/p>\n

Dr. Wodicka \u2013 Fall 2024<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.acf.hhs.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/prep-logic-model-ts_0.pdf for a<\/p>\n

discussion of logic models. Please consider a graphical representation rather than a narrative approach for this section. And remember to start from the outcomes in mind and work backwards! <\/span>(100 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 5 \u2013 Stakeholders:<\/b> <\/span>An approach to tactics building the team you need to accomplish<\/p>\n

this goal and helping to secure buy-in from your team and your chain of command (everyone has a boss!), which also addresses potential opposition to your idea. Your recommendations should include ideas for mobilizing key stakeholders to support the proposed policy or plan<\/p>\n

and to become agents of change. See this brief video on Stakeholder Analysis:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tFbyzrqFiNI for an overview of the process. While a<\/p>\n

narrative in this section is critical, a graphical representation summarizing this information<\/p>\n

can be helpful. <\/span>(350 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 6 \u2013 Implementation:<\/b> <\/span>A process of implementation with key steps and milestones. <\/span>(350 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 7 \u2013 Consequences:<\/b> <\/span>A brief discussion of potential risks and unintended<\/p>\n

consequences of the proposed interventions. <\/span>(250 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Section 8 \u2013 Conclusions:<\/b> <\/span>Conclusion, including a discussion of why this work is important <\/span>(200 words)<\/b><\/p>\n

Words within graphics (such as the logic model, or stakeholder analysis, for instance) do not count towards the final work count.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

For the formative assessment for this unit, you will submit your topic for my review, plus a very brief discussion. In doing so, please include a general description of the intervention that you plan to discuss. Essentially, this is a VERY brief description of sections 1, 2, and 3 above.<\/p>\n
