Critical Incident 4-1Top Gun!
Sitting in her office late on Friday afternoon, CEO Nancy Warner thought about how happy she was to have this job. The opportunity to do what I love to do and find ways to make Community Hospital a great place to work has given me purpose in life, she thought. Community Hospital in rural Oklahoma is the only hospital immediately accessible to the areas 40,000 inhabitants.
Nancy Warner grew up on a farm in the area, went to a local community college to be a nurse, got a masters degree in healthcare management, and a year and a half ago became the CEO of Community Hospital.

Whats it like to be a 23-year-old single parent, working at a minimum-level wage to support yourself and your child? Meet Callie Michaels.
In high school, Callie learned that she was pregnant. The father did not want to take any responsibility for the child, and for a time Callie considered giving up her baby, Olivia, for adoption. But instead Callie decided to drop out of school, get a reliable job, and raise the baby herself.

When Callie started, there was always at least one other person on duty with her. At peak periods, at least four employees provided front-desk service.

Using the Leadership Trait Questionnaire I would say that my perception of my strengths are that I am persistent, determined and diligent (Northouse, 2012). Part of my role today as a leader is to manage large scale enterprise wide projects while managing 40 individuals and the work we are responsible for. I am able to interact and support my team, which can be challenging at times, while working on the completion of a large project. My role today involves a unique balance between leading my team and leading a project. I am able to be successful because we take the time to teach and empower our staff to complete the work we have which frees me up to work on the projects assigned to me.
My perception of my greatest weaknesses, using the LTQ traits, are sensitive and friendly. I think that I am a sensitive and friendly person but its something that I must focus on when I am knee deep in a project, task or my work. I have tenancies to hav

Being a leader is a huge responsibility that is filled with difficult decision and complex issues that require attention, direction and critical thought. Based on the Adams 2012 article, I think that the 10th tough truth, regarding communication, is one of the most important skills and truths for a leader to understand. Clear, concise and appropriate communication will help the leaders staff to see the big picture, understand direction and the benefits of a decision. In addition, leaders must have a comprehensive understanding of the message being delivered and the most appropriate communication vehicle to deliver it. Choosing to send complex direction or change via an email, without face to face communication, is a common leadership mistake and can have many untended and negative consequences down the road.
Secondly, the bonus point made by Adams is something that leaders need to have a solid understanding of too. According to Adams (
