this approach?
Multiple selection question

Generate self-motivation
Maintain a positive attitude - Answer :Maintain balance
, Manage time
Leaders must maintain balance and control over their lives. Good leaders use
the simplest and fastest method of communication so as to be accessible and
to manage their personal and professional time. Listening to constituents
emphasizes that leaders must listen to their subordinates to determine
whether action is necessary. The rule of generating self-motivation expresses
the idea that leaders should not expect followers to be appreciative for the
time spent on followers' needs and must generate enthusiasm by their own
actions and attitudes. Maintaining a positive attitude involves using positive
thinking and positive messages to create an environment in which followers
believe in the organization, the leader, and themselves.
Quiz :Which statement made by the nurse leader would satisfy the basic
expectations of the client?
Multiple choice question
"I will return at 5 o'clock pm."
"What do you want us to do?"
"I am listening to you; please explain how you are affected by this problem."
"The problem was due to a delay in medication, but I have a solution to
prevent this from happening again." - Answer :"I will return at 5 o'clock pm."
The basic expectations of a client are reliability, assurance, tangibles, empathy,
and responsiveness. By saying "I will return at 5 o'clock pm," the nurse leader
shows reliability, which is important for satisfying the basic needs of the client.
By asking "What do you want us to do?," the leader shows a spirit of
partnership in problem solving, which is not related to basic expectations. The
leader should listen to the client and should ask him or her to explain a
problem, but this is not associated with basic expectations. The leader should
always tell the truth to the client about what went wrong, the plans for
resolving this problem, and the prevention of a recurrence. This quality is
reflected in the statement made by the leader, which is "The problem was due
to a delay in medication, but I have a solution to prevent this from happening
again." This quality also is not related to the basic expectations of a client.
