1. identifying leadership and supervisory style
Throughout this course, many of the leadership roles have been examined, including those
of supervisor, project or program manager, executive director, and many more. As advanced
practice social workers, many of you will be asked to take on any of these varying
leadership roles during your professional career.Utilizing outside sources, self-reflection,
and interviewing of a social work leader in the field, write a 5-page paper.Before the
interview:Determine whom you would like to interview for the assignment; think about a
social work professional who is currently or has been in a leadership position – consider
your interests in the leadership or supervisor role(s) they have held or currently hold,
leadership or supervisory styles or models (CVF quadrant) they align with and your
understanding of their role. Make every effort to interview a social worker in this role, but if
this is not possible, choose someone in a human services profession.Referring to the
leadership literature you research on your own and the course readings provided for you,
develop at least 10 questions to ask in the interview.After the interview, write your paper to
include the following:a description to identify whom you interviewed for the assignment
and why, i.e., your interest in the leadership or supervisory roles they have held or currently
hold; what leadership qualities you observed in them prior to the assignment; and if your
understanding of their role and qualities changed or stayed the same after the
interview;discuss what leadership literature and course readings you used to develop
interview questions and how you were able to use this information to create your
questions.provide a summary of the interview and the information learned – do not include
a list of questions and answers in the body of the paper, only a summary of information
learned.discuss your preferred leadership style and model (CVF quadrant) and how this
compares to the person you interviewed.discuss how you anticipate you will apply this
leadership style and model (CVF quadrant) in your own social work practice as a
supervisor, manager, and/or leader;include a self-reflection and assessment on why this
leadership style and model (CVF quadrant) suits you, including any past experiences you
have had either in the role of supervisor, manager, or leader or as an employee or volunteer
and what you learned from the interview that you will or will not use in your own future
social work practice.Do not include the interview questions within the body of the paper –
add the interview questions/answers, the name and title of the person you interviewed the
name of the organization where they work and his/her role (job position) in that
organization as an appendix after the reference page. A well referenced paper should
include about six (6) sources – cited within the body of the paper as well as referenced on
