Hiring Practices in Black Nonprofit Organizations: Servant Leadership and the Employee Experience
Get PDFThis dissertation examined the impact of servant leadership within a Black nonprofit organization facing hiring challenges, particularly during organizational growth. The study explored how the leadership style of an executive leader influences employee experiences at a Black nonprofit organization. Using a mixed methods approach, quantitative and qualitative data were collected to assess employee perceptions of servant leadership and its effects on various aspects of their employment journey, including hiring, onboarding, professional learning, personal development, and opportunities for career advancement. By investigating these dynamics, the study sought to contribute to a deeper understanding of how servant leadership and robust human resource management practices can mitigate hiring challenges and enhance the overall employee experience. The findings inform theoretical discussions on servant leadership and the employee experience and offer practical insights for improving policies and human resource management practices at Black nonprofit organizations
Initial Refugee Health Assessment Educational Session
Get PDFThe initial refugee health assessment presents an excellent opportunity to identify communicable diseases in newly arriving refugees. As the number of refugee arrivals increases, so will the need for nurses who possess the skills necessary to conduct the initial refugee health assessment. Prior to the pandemic, the United States was facing a nursing shortage. The impact of the pandemic devastated the nursing community, leaving them exhausted and burnt out, which led many nurses to retire and leave the field of nursing (National Council of State Boards of Nursing [NCSBN], 2023). Skilled nurses are needed to prevent the spread of communicable diseases. An educational session for the initial refugee health assessment has been proven to increase the knowledge of refugee health nurses. Two educational sessions were conducted at two local health departments in North Carolina. A total of 10 nurses completed all portions of the educational session. This project utilized a paired t-test to compare the pre-test results to the post-test results. There was a statistically significant difference between pre-survey scores (M = 42.03, SD = 13.79) and post-survey scores (M = 68.38, SD = 15.95); t (9) = -5.10, p \u3c .000. The test had an average pre-education score of 42.03 and an average post-education score of 68.38. This resulted in a 63% increase in knowledge of initial refugee health assessment after the educational intervention
