MHA FPX 5042 Assessment 2 Personal Development Plan

In addition to balancing work and family life, finding time for rest is crucial for mental and physical well-being. As a teenager, I kept myself busy with work and productivity, which was considered healthy. However, I never considered work-life balance until recently. As I approach my late thirties, I value my time more and realize the importance of balancing work, rest, and family. Over the past few years, I have come to appreciate the significance of being mentally and physically present for my family.

As a father of seven, finding family time is as important as work productivity. My third SMART goal is to continue pursuing my career and education without sacrificing family time. Additionally, finding time to rest is vital for better mental focus. This goal is ongoing, requiring constant diligence and discipline as a father, husband, student, and healthcare professional. Success in this goal is measured daily by being present and giving my best to my family.

My next SMART goal is to achieve my master’s degree by the end of February 2024. In the past, I balanced full-time work and school, valuing academic development. I completed my bachelor’s degree at Capella via the Flex Path program, averaging one course every six weeks. For my master’s program, I aimed to complete one course every two weeks, exceeding this goal and aiming to complete my degree in six months. Leading my family to excellence by example requires a strong mental attitude, focus, and determination. I hope to leave a legacy for my children, demonstrating that hard work pays off.

Goals, Actions, and Timelines

Advancing my career while growing as a loving father and husband has been a priority. Developing a growth mindset as a healthcare professional involves evaluating my team, company, and myself to find areas for growth. A growth mindset extends beyond oneself, valuing the development of others. Cultivating a growth mindset can start immediately, and fostering growth in others can be achieved through coaching, proctoring, and learning from others. Measurement of this growth will be reflected in my ability to train teammates, guide them, and lead processes.

The development of my team through training will strengthen our company’s Ophthalmology department. Team success translates to individual success. Leading processes, guiding others, and ensuring efficient and accurate work will enhance my leadership skills and growth mindset. Regular follow-up and meetings will help assess what is working well and what needs improvement. Over the next two years, developing myself and my team will be a valuable benchmark for my growth mindset.

The Coaching Relationship

Coaching involves an experienced person providing support, guidance, and directives to a student or mentee to ensure goal achievement. Coaches play a crucial role in individual and team growth by inspiring, leading, and directing towards success. They identify deficiencies and create conditions for growth and learning. Influential coaches demonstrate integrity, honesty, and lead by example. They boost self-esteem, inspire drive, and establish early trust to facilitate honest communication (Mühlberger et al., 2023).

Application of Coaching Strategies

Effective coaching begins with understanding the client, student, or employee. Knowing their strengths, weaknesses, challenges, and motivations fosters trust and insight. Fostering transparency through leading by example is crucial. Setting clear goals and outlining efficient methods to achieve them is another effective strategy. Celebrating achievements helps maintain morale and encourages progress (Potempa et al., 2023).

Coaching to Build and Develop Talent

Leading team projects requires teaching, guiding, and coaching others on new systems and processes. Close attention and effective communication are essential for coaching success. Developing team members through training strengthens the team’s efficiency and uncovers new talents. As a team lead, I have learned the importance of delivering education precisely and being available for guidance. Coaching requires patience, transparency, and effective leadership (Mühlberger et al., 2023).

Building Trust and Rapport When Coaching

Building trust and rapport begins with exhibiting competency and confidence. Transparent communication, clear expectations, and goal-setting are vital. Getting to know team members personally helps build rapport. Effective coaches develop strong communication skills and listen actively to understand needs and expectations.
