Leadership profile

I agree with the views of Calah because the post identifies important traits of leadership. Input and learning are two important strengths that would allow a healthcare provider to perform duty appropriately in the challenging environment. The third strength identified by Calah is harmony that I believe is crucial for building positive relationship with the patients. By showing harmony the healthcare provider can understand the feelings of the patients and respond to them in appropriate manner (Brown et al., 2012). I agree with the post that problem solving attitude is an important personality strength that help individuals to perform better role in their professional career. I think this trait is essential for the healthcare providers and nurses who are meeting with patients from different cultures and ethnicities. Problem solving skill encourage people to rely on their personal strengths for handling complex situations. This minimize the dependence of the people on others.

I like the fourth strength identified by Calah that is intellection. This trait is important for helping young professionals in following an accurate time table such as by making a to-do-list. This saves time and enhances the efficiency of the individuals. I believe every nurse and healthcare provider must possess this skill who are dealing with patients. Another important strength mentioned by Calah is relationship building (Kelly et al., 2014). I believe this is one of the most critical traits because nurses encounter patients who are demanding individual attention. By building a positive relationship the patients will develop comfort and develop trust towards healthcare provider which will help them in regaining health (Kennedy et al., 2014). Innovation in solving problems is also crucial for finding new ideas that could work effectively in every independent situation. I think the skills identified in the post are practical for working in healthcare institutes.
