Leadership with Impact

Preparing Health and Human Service Practitioners in the Age of Innovation and Diversity

By: Juan Carlos Araque,Eugenia L. Weiss

Leadership with ImpactÂoffers new ways of thinking and approaching complex problems through a conceptual and practical leadership approach founded on innovation and diversity. The authors introduce the I.D.D.E.A. (Innovation, Design, Diversity, Execution, and Assessment) Leadership Framework through which health and human service practitioners can easily design, implement, and evaluate innovative programs to help vulnerable populations and promote organizational and social change. Innovative leaders (also referred to as "social architects" in the text) will have the opportunity to explore complex social issues with an innovative lens and build solutions with the use of the latest evidence, technology, and collaborative practices. Additionally, chapters highlight "leadership profiles" and case scenarios comprised of health and human service leader interviews covering their perspectives and approaches to problem-solving. The content is responsive to social justice issues and prompts innovative leaders to be cognizant of diversity and learning how to recognize and apply culturally proficient practices in the workplace. Finally, the book offers assessment tools for the leader/practitioner to be mindful of their own engagement with others and evaluate their sustainable efforts.
