15 Improving Effective leaders strive for the continual improvement of their organizations by focusing on elements such the quality of care, efficiency, effectiveness, use of technology, and quality improvement initiatives, all supported by sound organizational data and research Aligning Effective Leaders strive to align all their decisions and actions, and the decisions and actions of those around them, with the Mission, Vision and Values of their organization. They reflect the Mission, Vision and Values in all their interactions, both internally and externally. Serving Effective Leaders serve the needs of their subordinates and colleagues by encouraging, supporting and enabling them to reach their full-potential. They also have as their highest priority the service of their clients, and they work to establish and promote a culture of resident-centredness throughout the organization.. Stewarding Effective Leaders focus on sustaining and supporting their organization through careful stewardship of financial and physical resources, by operating effectively within applicable legislation, regulations, and their organization s policies and procedures. Building Leadership Capabilities Connecting Effective Leaders establish productive connections throughout their organizations, and with external individuals and agencies, through their communications skills, their cultural sensitivity, their conflict management skills, their openness to others and their emphasis on team work. Mobilizing Effective Leaders mobilize the human resources of their organizations by developing, coaching and empowering employees, creating a collaborative work environment and building cohesive teams.

35 LEARNING change in attitudes, improved knowledge and/or increased skill THE RESULTS EXAMPLE: Changing the culture of aging (course 1, unit 2) The most important thing I learned about culture change and person-centred/directed care is: That the changes can t happen all at once. That it will happen in stages and that we can not expect everyone to buy into this notion of changing culture without some resistance. People will doubt and resist change until enough people are living by example People with passion make things happen on a national scale and I can make a difference on a daily basis by my words and actions
