Description
The Leader I Am or Aspire to Be—A Self-Reflection
For this Discussion, you are asked to review the subject matter of the past 3 weeks on leadership theories and frameworks and apply these to yourself using the process of self-reflection.
To prepare for this Discussion:
- You should first engage in reflection. Self-reflection is an important skill in business, especially for a leader or an aspiring leader. There are a number of different models of reflection that can be utilized; however, one of the more commonly used models is the 5R Framework for Reflection (Bain, et al., 2002), which focuses on five defined stages of reflection: reporting, responding, relating, reasoning, and reconstructing. Using this framework will enable you to produce a critically engaging reflection based on your experiences. Refer to the following table for more information about the framework:
| 5R Stages | Description | Guidelines |
|---|---|---|
| Reporting | A brief descriptive account of the situation/topic | What happened, what the situation/topic is |
| Responding | Your emotional/personal response to the situation/topic | Your observations, feelings, questions about the situation/topic |
| Relating | Personal and theoretical understandings relevant to the situation/topic | Making the connections between the situation/topic and your experience, skills, knowledge, and understanding |
| Reasoning | Your explanation of the situation/topic | Explaining the situation/topic in terms of the significant factors, relevant theories, and experiences |
| Reconstruction | Drawing conclusions and developing a future actionable plan | Your deeper level of understanding about the situation/topic that is used to reframe or reconstruct your future practice and further develop your understanding of professional practice (application) |
The 5R Framework of Self-Reflection
Adapted from: Bain, J. D., Ballantyne, R., Mills, C., & Lester, N. C. (2002). Reflecting on practice: Student teachers’ perspectives. Post Pressed.
