Description
An Infographic is a graphic visual representation of information, data, or knowledge intended to present information quickly and clearly. Health professionals can use infographics to quickly communicate a message, to simplify the presentation of large amounts of data, and to represent patterns and relationships.
The focus of the infographic is exploring a leadership/management situation you have faced or will face and work through a situational analysis. This analysis will allow you to assess factors that may impact the situation, including the internal and external factors, strengths and weakness (include you, others and system) and stakeholders (consultations). It will also assist you to consider the scope of the impact of these factors and determine the best way forward.

This situation may be related to staffing, management, an ethical issue that required negotiation with management and or medical staff, a practice change, a risk mitigation plan, resource issues, clinical governance, clinical errors or a change in practice requirement.
