Begin practicing the use of APA style for citations and references. All information that is not your opinion or experience should have a citation to show the reader where the fact came from and then a reference at the end of the post. Use Academic WriterLinks to an external site. for guidance in citing sources in proper APA style. See the Writing CenterLinks to an external site. for more APA resources specific to your degree level.

Leadership and Management

For this week's discussion:

• Please refer to concepts covered in this week's resources or activities.
• Attaching an article, video, podcast, meme, et cetera, as part of your post is always a good idea, but remember that you will need to write sufficient text in the post to meet the required point total for the post. Points will not be earned for merely attaching the resource and submitting a post without any descriptive text.
• Note: Do not create your post as a reply to the pinned post. Instead, use Yellowdig's Create option to create a new post.

Select one of the following prompts to begin your discussion post this week:

• Explain the difference between leadership and management and give an example of each. 
• Review the leadership styles in your textbook.  Which leadership style can you relate to the most and why? 
• Discuss at least one vulnerability or area for improvement in your leadership skills. According to your textbook, managers and leaders are constantly being observed by the people who follow them (staff, students, etc.).  
• Imagine that you are in a leadership role. CSWE Competency 1 focuses on the social worker’s ability to demonstrate professional and ethical behavior. Describe at least two professional or ethical expectations you would have for your staff, and explain why these expectations are important to you.
