Week 5 Discussion: Continue Your Discussion Proposal Development and Dissemination
This week, discuss how to develop and disseminate a proposal to amend or replace the social policy you selected.
Here are some ideas to get you started. Choose one to respond to for the discussion this week.
- What steps would you take to advocate for a change in the social policy you identified? What are some ways that you have used advocacy to make a difference in the past? What were the outcomes of your advocacy efforts?
- What leadership skills might be needed to successfully amend the existing policy? Did you use leadership skills like these in your own previous advocacy efforts? If not, how might they have helped?
- How does your culture, background, and/or experience impact your thinking about how to identify an opportunity for change and the leadership needed? How might this assist you in completing your presentation due in Week 9?
- Explain which of this week’s concepts, resources, or activities is of most interest to you and your professional development. Offer some specific examples.
Please note:
- Remember to practice the use of APA style for citations and references throughout the discussion activities in this course. All information not derived from your own knowledge or experience should include an in-text citation and a reference at the end of the post to show the reader where it came from.
