Leadership is best learnt when one gets a chance to reflect on how what they have learnt may or may not be applied to his/her life. Therefore, you are required to submit a reflection journal for ONE topic we covered between Week 2 and Week 10. The reflection journal should focus on how what you learnt in classes influences your thoughts about effective leadership and your personal leadership development plan based on the reflection. Your reflection journal should include the following: – Provide a very brief summary of the contents you learned in that session. – Reflect on how (1) the key concepts and theories you learnt based on the lecture and your additional self-learning, and (2) the in-class activities and discussion you participated in influence your thoughts about effective leadership. – Take a step back and think about how these reflections can guide you to further prepare yourself to be an effective leader in the future. Develop a plan with concrete examples of what you will do to become an effective leader, based on the reflections above in requirement 3

Theoretical Framework: Understanding the Impact of Divorce on Financial Well-Being
Divorce is a multifaceted life event that can have profound economic consequences for individuals, particularly women. Drawing upon theories from psychology, sociology, and economics, we aim to elucidate the mechanisms through which divorce influences financial well-being. The stress adjustment model, often utilized in various disciplines to describe the effects of stressors on individual adjustment and behavior, serves as a foundational framework for our analysis (Amato, 2000).
Psychological and Behavioral Effects of Divorce:
The psychological impact of divorce can manifest in various domains, including financial decision-making and wealth management. Stressors inherent in the divorce process, such as sole parenting responsibilities, loss of emotional support, and negative economic effects, can precipitate adjustments in individuals’ financial behaviors and attitudes (Amato et al., 2011). Attachment theory posits that disruptions in attachment bonds resulting from divorce may exacerbate emotional distress, further influencing financial decision-making processes (McMullen, 2011).
Socioeconomic Considerations and Adjustment Factors:
Demographic characteristics, such as income, educational attainment, and employment status, play a crucial role in moderating the effects of divorce on financial well-being. Socioeconomic disparities may exacerbate the financial strain experienced by divorced women, impacting their ability to navigate wealth management tasks effectively. Additionally, feminist theory highlights the systemic inequalities that contribute to women’s economic vulnerability post-divorce, underscoring the need for a gender-sensitive approach to understanding financial outcomes (Carbone, 1994).
Adapting the Stress Adjustment Model for Financial Behaviors:
In adapting the stress adjustment model for the context of financial behaviors post-divorce, we incorporate insights from behavioral economics and financial planning theory. The divorce-stress adjustment model delineates short-term and long-term effects on wealth management, acknowledging the dynamic interplay between individual adjustment processes and external stressors (Amato, 2010). This framework allows us to examine how divorce-induced stressors influence financial decision-making, savings behavior, and investment strategies over time.
Implications for Practice and Policy:
Understanding the complex interplay between divorce and financial well-being has important implications for practitioners and policymakers. By elucidating the mechanisms through which divorce affects wealth management behaviors, we can inform targeted interventions aimed at mitigating financial strain and promoting economic resilience among divorced women. Moreover, recognizing the systemic barriers faced by marginalized populations within this demographic underscores the need for equitable policy reforms to address gender and socioeconomic disparities in post-divorce financial outcomes (Starnes, 2012).
Hypotheses
Research Question 1: How does financial well-being differ between divorced women and married women in the US?
1. Hypothesis 1a: Divorced women will report lower levels of financial well-being compared to married women.
2. Hypothesis 1b: Divorced women will perceive higher levels of financial constraints and anxiety compared to married women.
3. Hypothesis 1c: Divorced women will report less satisfaction with their financial situation compared to married women.
Research Question 2: How do financial well-being outcomes vary among white divorced women and non-white divorced women in the US?
4. Hypothesis 2a: Non-white divorced women will report lower levels of financial well-being compared to white divorced women.
5. Hypothesis 2b: Non-white divorced women will perceive higher levels of financial constraints and anxiety compared to white divorced women.
6. Hypothesis 2c: Non-white divorced women will report less satisfaction with their financial situation compared to white divorced women.

Exercise 1
In class, you were told about comparative advantage with examples given of businesses and industries. Yet, the idea that people specialize into their comparative advantage and then trade with others who have a different comparative advantage can also be applied inside families and partnerships.
In this exercise, I would like you to write a story. I want you to pick a relationship between two people you know well. They could be husband and wife, brother and sister, close friends, business partners, or any other close pairing. You can pick a relationship you are part of, but it could also be a relationship between others, like friends you know, family you know, or any other relationship you know well.
Describe that relationship in terms of the comparative advantages had by each side and the trade that there then is between them in terms of goods and services produced by each side. This means you must describe the things that each side of that relationship is good at and what they thus produce that is then shared (traded) with the other. Bear in mind that trade does not always need to involve money, but there has to be a clear exchange of a good or service. Also bear in mind that trade is different from co-production (like doing an activity together).
As with all the concepts we discuss, I would like you to be able to recognize in the real world the phenomena that we discuss in class. This leads to a more systematic way of perceiving the reality.
The goal of this exercise is not to explain what a comparative advantage is; it already is explained above. Rather, the goal is for you to reflect on your own experiences and memories to find examples from your own life of the concepts discussed in class. I am hoping to read some interesting stories.
Exercise 2
Read the slides and background literature on the topic of different types of economies of scale. Then please think of the organization you work for or one that you know well (like a previous job or the job of your partner, or some other organization you know a lot about).
Describe at least 3 diseconomies of scale in that organization.
Then make a judgment on whether you think the organization as a whole enjoys economies of scale overall ‘at the margin’: would the organization produce more than 10% extra if its size (in terms of people working for it, machines, offices, etc.) was 10% bigger? Argue why you think that is the case.
Exercise 3
Read the slides and extra literature in your content folder on the issue of limited liability. Then please think of the organization you work for or one that you know well (like a previous job or the job of your partner, or some other organization you know a lot about).
Who or which unit in this organization do you think has the greatest degree of limited liability (ie is held least responsible when they make mistakes)? Argue why you think this and whether you think this is optimal for the organization or not.
Who or which unit in this organization do you think has the least degree of limited liability (ie is held most responsible when they make mistakes)? Argue why you think this and whether you think this is optimal for the organization or not.
Exercise 4
Read the slides on Bitcoin.
Name a Bitcoin trading platform and give a link to the website. Then detail: i) what transaction costs you think are involved in exchanging 100 Euros into US dollars, ii) how many bitcoins one would then 3 get if one uses those US dollars to buy a certain number of bitcoins on the mentioned platform, iii) the number of US dollars one then gets when immediately selling the bitcoins just bought, and iv) the number of Euros one can then get for those US dollars. So I want you to find out (on the basis of looking up the costs or asking market participants) what would happen in each of the four steps above (buy USD with Euros, buy bitcoin with US dollars, sell bitcoin for US dollars, sell dollars for Euros). You should thus end with the number of Euros you would have left if you did the four steps above. Give references. Note that I really expect an effort into finding out the true transaction costs.
Read the slides on optimal investment strategies.
Give an example of 4 entirely different possible investments that in your opinion are almost equally risky (on their own), have almost equal ‘expected returns’, but where the risks are highly independent (like separate throws of a dice). Argue why you think they are similarly risky and with similar returns. The argue why you think the risks of each of these investments are quite unrelated.
Note that you do not need to pick high-expected return investments, or even high-risks investments. The point of the question is for you to show you have understood and can apply the principles involved in the basic idea of asset diversification.
