Leadership in Health Care Organizations Practicum - Coursework ExampleIntegrity is non always easy to display and especially when it involves ones immediate superior as ripple effects might be dire and not worth it in the end (Huberts, Maesschalck and Jurkiewicz, 2008). This was one of those situations I found myself two years ago in my former employment. I was on off duty and was not supposed to come to work. However, I discovered I had forgotten some private items and I went back to work around 8pm. I heard voices in the pharmacy further the door was locked which was strange. On investigation, I discovered my superior and another(prenominal) nurse taking drugs and putting them in a bag. This was stealing and I had to report it. I was however fearful of what the repercussions would be if I describe it but I did it anyway. A few months later I had to quit my job as the supervisor made my life impossible but at to the lowest degree I had stood up for my integrity. Integrity dema nds strength and not emotions. Emotions cloud ones judgment and hence can prevent one from acting on the integrity. In order to be able to be a person with integrity and uphold it, it is important to remember what is important and that is to make things better and not worse. Separating emotions is therefore the key point in ensuring that one leads by example. In the above mentioned case involving my supervisor, if I had allowed emotions to cloud my judgment, i would not have reported him and hence would not have been displaying my integrity and not leading by example.
