Reflect on your understanding of serving as a power broker on behalf of policy change. Describe any experience you have in this regard. Also, evaluate the skills necessary to act in this capacity. What is actually involved in advocating for change on a professional-to-professional level? How can you and others influence the change process? Evaluate your own advocacy skills of this type: describe your strengths and development needs.

Posts should reflect your personal and professional experience—and all posts and responses should be supported by recent, scholarly research with proper APA citations and references.
