This is a specific requirement of this essay required.
Based on a previous essay I have written, we need to write a reflection essay on it based around distributed leadership model (DLM)
before confirmation of order I will need to discuss with writer on the my previous assignment and my diary entries on how these can b help relate to this reflective esssay.

brief of assignment
Leading Assignment 1B
Assignment 1(b): Reflective Leadership Journal (25%).
This assignment is a reflective assignment that is evidence-based. The evidence will be diary entries that will be used to inform your reflection. Learning to be reflexive is a key skill to develop in the work place as people will be telling you things about yourself. You have to decide how true or untrue they are.
\u00a0
Assignment 1b has two parts: diary entries and the Reflective Journal. The link between the two is that the diary entries will form the evidence, together with your Hero and Zero moments, that you will reflect upon in your Reflective Journal. If you have no diary entries, you can only reflect upon the Hero and Zero moments using the lenses provided by concepts in the course.
\u00a0
Diary entries: No marks \u2013 This is the evidence for the Reflection
In week 1, you will decide on how frequently you will make your diary entries. These diary entries can only be viewed by you and teaching staff in the unit. No one else can view them. Diary entries are voluntary. Please number your diary entries.
\u00a0
What are the diary entries about?
Every week, you are expected to complete the required readings and complete the pre-seminar activities as well as the post-seminar activities from the preceding week. Many of the seminars will also have activities. The outcomes of the activities form the evidence to support any conclusion you draw about yourself in the Reflection.\u00a0 The central issue in relation to these diary entries is quality. Of course you can simply answer \u2018Yes\u2019 or \u2018No\u2019, but the question is \u2018Why?\u201d \u2013 Why did I get this result? Why did the seminar group react in this way? What assumptions did I make that led to the outcome? How did those assumptions come to be?\u00a0 Why didn\u2019t I do it the other way? Why didn\u2019t I recognise that my classmate would react in that way? Your answers to these questions can, and should be, used as entries. If you find yourself writing \u201cif only\u2026 then\u2026.\u201d you are going off track.
\u00a0
You will also need to apply the course concepts to the Hero and Zero moments. In relation to the Hero\/Zero moments, and for the diaries to be useful, don\u2019t make it about hindsight i.e. \u201cI should have done X, or I should not have been quiet\u201d. The central question here is why did you do X in the first place? Or Why were you quiet in the first place?
\u00a0
Reflection (2,000 words) Due end Saturday, Calendar Week 8; Submit in Word Compatible format; fully referenced (diary entries as well as academic references) please include your name in the file name.
Using Witherspoon\u2019s Practices, use the data from your\u00a0 Hero and Zero moments, your diary entries or any insight gained over the teaching period to enhance your understanding of yourself. The goal is to gain insight to the lessons of your experiences. This is the most important part of this assignment. There are four components to this assignment:
1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 report,
2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 reflect
3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 reframe and
4)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Re-design.
Report
Report your key findings about yourself. The activities, readings and questions are experiments that you conducted upon yourself. What happened when you undertook these activities, read the readings and\u00a0 answered the questions? Summarise and report these results from your diary entries.
\u00a0
Reflect:
You are expected to look back retrospectively at the results you reported. Adopt a high level view to tease out the patterns that exist in your experiences in the course. Apply course concepts to look at the Hero and Zero entries, and other diary entries you may have made to draw conclusions about your understanding of leadership, what it means to be a leader, your assessment of your leadership capabilities, assumptions that drive you, and default approaches to situations that may exist within you. \u00a0Here are some possible questions to start you off, to help you focus your analysis and interpretation. Please note that these are trigger questions only and are intended to aid your reflection. Do not use these trigger questions as headings, or structure your paragraphs around each of them.
\u00a0
Table 1: Question triggers from Witherspoon 2014, p264 <\/p>\n
Re-frame:
In this step, you are being asked to consider how you saw the situations you saw your self in in the Hero\/Zero moments, the in-class activities etc. In other words, what lens were you viewing the world through? What identity was activated at that moment? Again here are some triggers for you.
Table 2: Question triggers based on author and Witherspoon 2014 p265 <\/p>\n
By the end of this step, you should be in a position to evaluate your own DLM capabilities. Such as:
o\u00a0\u00a0 To what extent do you practice the capabilities of the DLM?
o\u00a0\u00a0 Are you a good Sensemaker? What evidence do you have?
o\u00a0\u00a0 Are you good at Relating? What evidence do you have?
o\u00a0\u00a0 Are you good at Visioning? What evidence do you have?
o\u00a0\u00a0 Are you good at Inventing? What evidence do you have?
o\u00a0\u00a0 Why do you rate yourself this way? Do you think your peers and subordinates would rate you the same way?
o\u00a0\u00a0 Did you treat an adaptive challenge as a technical challenge? Why? <\/p>\n
\u00a0
Re-design:
Having analysed your Hero\/Zero moments, ask yourself what does this mean for yourself? This is a big picture perspective. You may find contradictions; you may find hidden strengths or unknown weaknesses. Link these insights back to the capabilities of the DLM i.e. the extent and quality to which you practice these capabilities. Then outline what needs to change in relation to the capabilities.
You need to identify three concrete actions to take:
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 What have you done well and should continue to do?\u00a0
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 What specific behaviour should you stop engaging in? Why?
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 What specific behaviour should you start engaging? Why?
The re-design may take the form of \u201cIf\u2026then.. statements\u201d. If I encounter this situation X, then I will take actions Y\u201d. These actions must be concrete steps and not statements like \u2018I will sensemake better\u2019. What will you do to engage in better sensemaking? In this last section, it is more than just 3 sentences. The identification of these behaviours should be flow from the data to your analysis and your interpretation. You must relate these actions back to the capabilities of the DLM.

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Using Witherspoon\u2019s Practices, use the data from your \u00a0Hero and Zero moments, your diary entries or any insight gained over the teaching period to enhance your understanding of yourself. The goal is to gain insight to the lessons of your experiences. This is the most important part of this assignment. There are four components to this assignment:
1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0report,
2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0reflect
3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0reframe and
4)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Re-design.
\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Advice on how to incorporate theory in your reflection:
Your Reflection needs to be more than just thinking about your Hero\/Zero and diary entries. Your Reflection needs to apply theory to ground your analysis.\u00a0 So the focus is NOT to tell stories, but to ground your stories in\u00a0 theory. The question is why are you relating a particular incident? This incident must be used to illustrate the theory. So instead of saying \u201cX hid in his office for large parts of the day\u201d, say instead \u201csensemaking is social.\u00a0This means it requires social interaction.\u00a0By staying in his office the whole day, X was not interacting with people.\u00a0Consequently his sensemaking was faulty.\u201d
\u00a0
Now, the example I have given you is in itself incomplete so don\u2019t go round reproducing it as a couple of important parts are left out. However it does demonstrate my point: I start off with theory (Red), explain it (green), then use the story to illustrate the theory (purple); and then conclude (orange)
In short, you need to introduce theory and use stories to illustrate the theory. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
