Being An Authentic, Equitable, and Inclusive Manger: Part 3
To complete Part 3 of the Assignment, you will again assume the role of a manager in the following scenario:
Your peer mentoring group for managers held its first meeting two weeks ago, during which you and other managers shared your thoughts on authenticity, equity, inclusivity, and how your values and beliefs have been shaped throughout your life. In last week’s meeting, your master mentor asked each member to use the thoughts and reflections from the first meeting to develop your personal code of ethics and to propose how your skills and abilities to influence positive social change. In this week’s meeting, the master mentor has asked you to summarize your findings from Week 9 – Part 1 and Week 10 – Part 2 into a concise and formal presentation with a script (speaker notes) that you could use to present these ideas to new managers when challenging them to think about and apply these concepts.
As you prepare your slide deck, be sure to cover all items outlined. Also be sure to incorporate references to appropriate academic sources from Week 9 and Week 10, such as those found in the Learning Resources or those in the Walden Library.
To prepare for this Assignment:
· Review your Week 9 Assignment on Authenticity, Equity, and Inclusivity and Core Beliefs and Values. Be sure to note any feedback provided by your instructor.
· Review your Week 10 Assignment on Analyzing Personal Codes of Conduct, your own Personal Code of Conduct, and your proposal on how you might use this Code of Conduct in conjunction with emotional intelligence to be an effective agent for positive social change. Make any updates needed to your Personal Code of Conduct.
Submit your 5- to 7-slide presentation, being sure to address the following sections:
Authenticity, Equity, and Inclusivity (approximately 2–3 slides)
Create a profile of an authentic, equitable, and inclusive organization to present as an exemplar. You may use aspects of existing organizations you have researched or employ your creativity to illustrate what you would consider the ideal environment. Through your slide bullets and speaker notes, be sure to address the following:
· What is the organization’s culture as it relates to authenticity, equity, and inclusivity?
· What are some aspects of managerial behaviors that reflect this culture?
· How does this culture impact the success of individuals and of the organization as a whole?
Your Personal Code of Ethics (approximately 1–2 slides)
Present your revised personal code of ethics.
· In your speaker’s notes, summarize how your core beliefs, values, or principles guide your behavior and decision making as a manager.
· Also, justify the importance of having such a code of ethics to guide your decision making, relating to at least one example of a difficult decision you have made in accordance with this code of ethics. Note: This example could be from your personal experiences, or you may create a situation that you could imagine facing as a manager.
You as a Change Agent (approximately 2–3 slides)
· Describe two specific examples of how a code of ethics, in conjunction with the management and leadership skills you learned in this course, can be used to help you be an effective agent for positive social change. You may pull examples from your own personal experience or from other professionals you have observed or whose stories you have found through your own research.
