NR630 Nurse Executive Practicum
Week 7 Management Project Assignment
Purpose
The management activity project is a major component of the practicum experience. Students are expected to develop and implement a management activity that will benefit the organization and contribute to the student’s ability to achieve the course outcomes. The management activity should be chosen, in conjunction with the mentor and approved by the course faculty, based on a review of the needs of the organization. The student is to assess the need for the management activity, develop objectives for the activity and identify management strategies from the literature used in the development and implementation of the activity. The student is to present the management activity to the targeted audience or recipients of the management activity. If the student is unable to implement the activity due to organizational restrictions, the student is to identify in the evaluation the reasons for not implementing the project.
