Create and deliver a slide presentation (8-12 slides; 3-5 minutes maximum presentation) on the analysis of a selected health care problem that includes evidence-based recommendations. Your submission needs to include a narrated webcam recording, using your PowerPoint slides and speaker notes, which serve as a transcript.
Health care leaders scan for emerging and existing issues, prioritize problems, collect and analyze data, propose evidence-based solutions, and engage diverse teams in the process. Once a problem has been sufficiently analyzed, the health care leader must identify stakeholders who will participate in the final decision making for a proposed evidence-based solution.
Most importantly, the health care leader must craft a message that is aligned with organizational mission and strategy, based upon sound analysis and data, and includes of a wide variety of diverse stakeholders. The message needs to be communicated in a clear, concise, culturally competent, balanced, and professional manner.

Slides
Review Guidelines for Effective PowerPoint Presentations [PPTX] for a refresher on how to create compelling, visually appealing slides that capture the audience’s attention.
Download and study the Final PowerPoint Template [PPTX] for a suggested structure for the slides. Using the slide template will help to keep your presentation within the maximum 3 to 5 minute presentation time frame.
Practice Video Recording the Presentation
After developing slides and preparing your speaker notes, practice delivering the presentation multiple times via screen and webcam recording before making the final webcam recording for submission. Practicing your presentation multiple times will make the presentation more polished and professional. Likewise, multiple dry runs will also help you adhere to the 3 to 5 minute maximum presentation length. Before submitting the presentation, make sure the recording is audible, the slides are visible, and that you are included in a video capture.
Consult the Using Kaltura [PDF] for additional guidance on how to record the presentation.
Instructions
Use the Final PowerPoint [PPTX] template to create a 35 minute recorded PowerPoint presentation of 812 preformatted slides. The template provides the outline of what you need to cover in the presentation. The goal of this assessment is to communicate essential elements of your analysis in a succinct manner. A 3- to 5-minute presentation may not seem long, but it is the reality in today’s health care workplace. Busy executives will not be able to spare more time than this. The presentation is for interdepartmental senior leadership team viewing.
Be sure to include visual summaries of your data, such as a pie chart or graph. The summarized data visual display should be in a readable format in a Word document or spreadsheet. It is important to include specific titles for the data summaries that identify the subject matter and measurement units.

c.Third, explain which ideal should take the top priority and why.
CAUTION: Are your top obligation and top ideal compatible, meaning can they be fulfilled at the same time in the same solution? If they conflict, you will need to rethink your choice of top obligation or top ideal.

c. In a bulleted list, identify several negative consequences that resulted from your choice/action. Then, label what type of consequence each example was. (ie. 1. Joe continued to be bullied – emotional, psychological, immediate, overtime. 2. I felt guilty for not saying something to stop the bullying – immediate, emotional….and so on)
d. In a bulleted list, identify several positive consequences that resulted from your choice/action. Then label what type of consequence it was. (ie. 1. I did not get bullied myself for stepping in – emotional, immediate, intended. 2. ???)
