ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses the understanding, knowledge, and development of inclusive examination to build and sustain a reflective culture. Providing leadership with tools alone does increase the agility and skill necessary to enhance existential opportunities to build reflective culture. The practice of reflection can be mistaken as simply mulling over one's day; there is a tendency to oversimplify the effort. Incorporating reflection into professional practice means being willing to buck the status quo and accept a transformation of perspective. The new Reflective Practice Assessment model blends ethical reasoning, critical thinking, and continuous quality improvement, within both an individual and team experiential learning process. The focus is designed to create, review, and transform ideas, behaviors, and attitudes by presenting fundamental and foundational challenges through each case study that result in the development and understanding of leadership agility skills.
