Introduction

There are many ills that bedevil several members of the society. Such ills threaten the integration, peace, development and existence of the members of the society. Social exclusion is a good example of such ills. Social exclusion is where some members of the society may be left out or remains lagging behind despite major transformations and development. There are several groups of people who can be categorized as socially excluded individuals. Such groups may include transgenders’, the mentally ill among many others. However, my main area of focus with regards to social exclusion is the mentally challenged and how they are socially excluded.

Social exclusion is something that can happen to anyone. The mentally ill has been particularly vulnerable. This vulnerability can be attributed to many reasons which may include social and economic changes in the society. The society is swiftly changing. The technology is also changing immensely. These changes may result in some members of the society becoming stronger socially and economically while others becoming even more excluded socially.

The mentally ill in the society have become immensely excluded socially. This may be due to the illness effects or lack of adequate financial resources to continue enjoying social inclusion. Such exclusion mostly leads to low self-esteem. In cases where the mentally ill are excluded socially, even proper recovery may become a huge problem (Somerville, 2000).

System Interactions

The society should pay close attention to the plight of the mentally ill. If that is not taken into consideration, then we risk having hugely segmented society with each part not able to sustain itself. This is because many system levels exist. The micro level is the interaction of people at a closer interpersonal level such as face to face conversations. This may also include specific reference to the main individual involved and why he or she might have been socially excluded.

Meso level, on the other hand, of interaction will specifically involve the search for causes for group behavior and response towards the mentally ill, for instance. Such analysis mainly seeks to understand group attitudes. It may also try to examine how they perceive their own states within the society (Liljenström & Svedin, 2005).

The exo-system level mainly focuses on the evaluation of factors that do not have direct effects on social exclusion of the mentally ill. Such a factor could, for instance, be the time of playing soccer. Policies on how the mentally ill should be treated can also be considered as exo-systems.

Macro, on the other hand, refers to the concept of where there is wider social interaction such as within a whole community. Many people tend to follow what the general society deems to be acceptable. In cases where the mentally ill are socially excluded, even young children are likely to propagate the act since it’s widely acceptable and may not bring punishments or seclusion by others (Lerner, Lerner, & Lerner, 2006).

As you engage in this learning process, it is important to remember that everyone—regardless of temperament type or related preferences—experiences some challenges with regard to leadership. The key to success is being able to recognize and leverage your own strengths while honoring differences among your colleagues.

At some point in your leadership career, you will encounter an ethical or moral dilemma that requires you to take a stand and defend your position.

For this Assignment, you evaluate an issue and consider how you could act as a moral agent or advocate, facilitating the resolution of the issue for a positive outcome.

To prepare:

• Consider the examples of leadership demonstrated in this week’s media presentation and the other Learning Resources.
• To further your self-knowledge, you are required to complete the Kiersey Temperament as indicated in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider your leadership style, including your strengths for leading others and include your results from Kiersey Temperament Sorter to describe potential challenges related to your leadership style.
• Mentally survey your work environment, or one with which you are familiar, and identify a timely issue/dilemma that requires you to perform the leadership role of moral agent or advocate to improve a situation (e.g., speaking or acting on behalf of a vulnerable patient, the need for appropriate staffing, a colleague being treated unfairly).
• What ethical, moral, or legal skills, dispositions, and/or strategies would help you resolve this dilemma? Define the differences between ethical, moral, and legal leadership.
• Finally, consider the values and principles that guide the nursing profession; the organization’s mission, vision, and values; the leadership and management competencies addressed in this course; and your own values and reasons for entering the profession. What motivation do you see for taking a stand on an important issue even when it is difficult to do so?

To complete:

By Day 7

Write a 4 to 5 page paper (page count does not include title and reference page) that addresses the following:

• Introduce the conceptual frameworks of the ethical constructs of ethics, moral, or legal standards and the purpose of the paper.
• Consider  an ethical, moral, or legal dilemma that you have encountered in your work environment and describe it.
• Analyze the moral, ethical, and legal implications utilized in this situation. Describe your role as a moral agent or advocate for this specific issue.
• Consider your leadership styles identified by your self-assessment and determine if they act as a barrier or facilitation during this dilemma.
