Module 1: LEADERS AND LEADERSHIP

1. From the list of virtues considered as a foundation of leadership, choose at least five (5) virtues
that are considered commendable qualities/traits that describe your habits.

✓Prudence – the habit which enables man to direct his actions to human life’s goals, knowing
the right thing to do and applying it

✓Justice – the habit of giving each one his due with a constant and perpetual will; gives stability
that man needs to work without fear and anxiety in the search for happiness

✓Fortitude – the habit of overcoming the difficulties and pressures of life in the pursuit of good

✓Industry – the habit of working hard and working under pressure

✓Loyalty – the habit of remaining true to your friends and your principles (goals) in times 

2. From the list of traits of leadership select the qualities of a good leader that describe you to be a
good leader

-Leadership is the ability to recognize a problem before it becomes emergy.

-Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
-Leadership is the ability to handle uncertainty.
-Leadership has nothing to do with ordering people around or directing their every move.

3. Which of the characteristics listed best describe you as a leader of the community? Why justify
your answer

  For me, the best characteristic as a leader of communication is "Leadership has nothing to do with
ordering people around or directing their every move" because in a group all of us are leaders cuz we
have our ideas and we share it with the group member, I guess leadership is hard but to be leaders are the
voice and members are the source.

4. Which of the leadership styles do you consider effective? Explain briefly.

The leadership style I considered effective is 

"A leader presents decision but “Sells it to Members" because to make the situation easy and fast you
have to share what are you know and ideas about it and let the members know so that they can add some
ideas in advance.

5. In developing potential leaders, attention and commitment to nurturing and equipping are given
much consideration.  Explain why.
Because if you don't get the attention of the potential leaders, they will not learn. They won't come to
acquire leadership skills if they don't commit. You'll lose your audience if you don't know how to nurture.
So be sure you're ready to educate your future leaders on the abilities they'll need to succeed!

Module 2: Entrepreneur and Social Entrepreneurship

1. Define entrepreneur and Entrepreneurship.

 
An entrepreneur is a person who starts a new firm and bears most of the risks while reaping the majority
of the benefits. The entrepreneur is frequently portrayed as a pioneer, a provider of novel ideas, products,
services, and/or business processes. On the other hand, Entrepreneurship is defined as the process of
creating or extracting value. With this definition, entrepreneurship is defined as a process of change that
involves more risk than is often associated with starting a firm and may include values other than
financial ones.

carry out the policies outlined in this Act. A Council for Small and Medium Enterprise
Development (SMED) is hereby established.

4. List down and explain each of the management principles in managing a small business.

work, is defined as an organization. The organization also refers to a group of people who have formally
gathered together.

The plan, the thought process, action, and implementation are all part of the planning process. Planning
gives you more control over the future. It entails setting goals and arranging them in a logical order.

Module 3: Decision-Making

1. What is the importance of decision-making?

The most crucial aspect of a manager's job is making decisions. In the planning process, it is the most
significant factor. When managers plan, they consider a variety of factors, including the goals that their
company will pursue, the resources that will be used, and who will do each work.

2. Explain an occasion where you had to decide on your own? We're you happy with your decision-
making process 

I had a tough time making a decision when I was choosing my college course because I need to think
deeply. After all, it's my future I'm talking to and I want to make a decision I'm comfortable with and
nothing to worry about, and regrets. To be practical when choosing a college degree so that afterward I
finish studying I have work to enter in. At the end happy with it.

3. How do you react in a situation where you need to take an immediate decision? What process will
you follow for decision-making in such a critical situation?

Practice in Your Comfort Zone. You're already stretching yourself to make—and stick to—a decision, so
don't pressure yourself to work on this skill when you have a million other things going on. The candidate
should demonstrate patience and good judgment by identifying problems first, prioritizing them, and
planning adequately to solve them.

4. Discuss briefly the following:

 Majority vote
-indicates a vote on a resolution put to a Meeting by more than half of the Members who are
present and eligible to vote at that meeting. Majority Vote. Concerning Members, the vote or
written consent of Members holding a majority of the Ownership Percentages held by all such
Members entitled to vote on or consent to the issue in question.

 *The Handclasp
                          One person suggests something, another agrees it's a fantastic idea, and the problem is
settled without more discussion. These choices are more common than one might believe, and they often
go unnoticed at the moment, but later resentment surfaces.

*The silent consensus

                          Some organizations seek decision-making consensus. If true, these are admirable
attributes, although they are rarely manifested in their entirety on big issues. Unanimity is sometimes
inferred when certain members don't feel free to dispute and stay silent.

*The Clique
                    A tiny group of people makes the choice, and they plan ahead of time to get their way. They
are typically successful on the immediate issue because they are better organized than those who disagree,
but they introduce a spirit of competitiveness into the organization rather than cooperation.
5. If you are involved in a decision-making process, which of the above (from question 4) do you
prefer to apply? Why?

I prefer silent consensus because consensus decision-making fosters trust, ownership, and dedication.
Consensus decisions can lead to higher-quality outcomes, allowing the group or community to go forward
and shape their shared destiny.

Module 4: Community Need Assessment

1. What is a community needs assessment? Why is it important in formulating NSTP projects?

 A community needs assessment analyzes the community's strengths and resources for meeting the
needs of children, youth, and families. The evaluation focuses on the community's capacities,
including residents, agencies, and organizations. Community Requirements Assessments aim to
collect accurate data that reflects a community's needs. Before taking action, assessments are
carried out to ascertain present situations and identify concerns that need to be addressed, laying
the groundwork for crucial planning.

2. What are the information to be included in assessing community needs?

 The size of the population, demographic make-up, religious views, cultural attitudes, and
individual responsibilities in the community are all factors that must be considered when
developing an action plan based on the community needs assessment.

3. How are the data collected for meaningful results of community need assessment?

 Only by specifying the aims for which the data will be used can the correct data useful data be
collected. The ability to collect relevant data is just as crucial as the insights that data may
provide. People perceive and judge those insights, which are the end outcome of any data
collecting.

Module 5: Social Mobilization and Networking 

1. Define social mobilization.

 In the consequence of conflicts and disasters, social mobilization is the first stage in community
development. It enables people to think about and comprehend their circumstances, as well as
organize and take action for their rehabilitation, using their initiative and creativity. The
importance of social mobilization in health promotion cannot be overstated. It's a great instrument
for addressing disparities through grassroots action and community engagement. It ensures that
the community's top health and social concerns are addressed rather than those set by the
government.

2. List down individuals and institutions/organizations who are potential collaborative partners.
  Political – policymakers
The extreme left column names some types of policymakers. Advocacy with and Among leaders in this
group helps foster the commitment that will clear the way for Action. The goal here is to build consensus
with sound data, to create a knowledgeable And supportive environment for decision-making, including
the allocation of adequate resources.

 Bureaucratic/Technocratic – government workers and technical experts

 Makers depend on the technocrats, bureaucrats, and service professionals to provide the rationale
for decisions as well as to plan and implement programs. This Sector includes disparate groups,
each with its agenda, conflicting interests, and Concerns. Harmonizing the disparate units in this
sector is probably one of the greatest challenges in development because development specialists
have hitherto failed to recognize how difficult it is to foster unity among government units and
technical groups.

 Non-governmental sector

-This covers a multitude of interests. Nongovernmental organizations for special Purposes, social
institutions and associations that represent organized support, religious Groups with their ideological
bends, commerce, and industry that operate on a for-profit basis, and professional groups that exist to
advance their interests are here. Though Difficult to mobilize, they do not hide their positions. If their
stakes are given recognition, they are important partners and allies to mobilize the civil society for various
health Objectives.

 Community Groups

-Community leaders, schools, churches, mosques, and grassroots groups are critical to get communities
involved. They help transform development goals into action. Unfortunately, they are often not given a
voice in identifying problems and designing solutions. Popular participation takes place here.

 Households and Individuals

        -Individual actions are the ultimate pay-off of the health program. In the Household, where such
behavioral actions take place, key individuals in traditional society often hold sway. There needs to be
deliberate action to inform and educate individuals in the household so that they can make informed
choices.
