Dr Goldy Brown III made his case when he explained, it noble to have reciprocated ideas with your employee that everyone can utilize and trust in. In return, it will create a nurturing connection at work that includes every person input regardless of their position. These concepts will allow employees to become “team players” (p.105). With her leadership characteristics, Fisher always starts the meeting by asking the employees about their input even though she is not require to. For example, the Director of Nursing (DON) gave fisher an assignment to address the prevention of patients fall on the unit. To elicit feedback and promote team work, she meets with her subordinates and begins the conversation by asking for everyone’s input. In addition, she further explains that the information obtained from the team will be incorporated into the decision making about patient falls. Moreover, from a personal perspective, one seldom finds nursing leaders who ask for the input of his or her workers. In addition, the interventions imposed from the staff were implemented feedback to create a safe environment for the patient. As a result, our unit has the least falls in the facility. This demonstrates that a part of obtaining staff input also includes

During the interview, I was able to define the nurse leader’s qualities and leadership style. The leader possesses a vast amount of knowledge and skill base that she has attained through an assortment of evidence-based research findings and career competencies in becoming an effective leader. Initially, the nurse leader’s leadership style was centered on that of the transactional leader, which she identified in using the SWOT analysis Marquis and Huston (2012) noted that the old-style manager is more concerned with the “day-to-day” operations that the leader began learning in her early manager roles that were identified in the interview with the leader. The leader utilized the SWOT analysis to determine her strengths and weakness. Valkov (2010) denoted that the model is theoretically clear, easy to apply, “economical” and sound, which makes it ideal for managers to utilize. Learn (2013) identifies the use of a SWOT analysis in a personal perspective that assist in developing professional goals by reviewing individual
The ability to promote structure, safety, and positive environments for both patients and colleagues alike are unique characteristics to quality leadership. Those same traits are essential to possess to have a cohesive interdisciplinary team of healthcare providers. There are various strategies that a nurse can employ to foster the collaboration of a particular team. The most influential strategy is the use of active communication, more specifically assertive communication. This type of communication is considered the healthiest because it is free from any bias. The nurse who is an assertive communicator values the whole picture as opposed to only one small piece of the equation. This approach takes into account all individuals involved, and validates the thoughts and feelings of others.
Leader is a title in which a series of skills, attitudes and actions are required. Within the role of a leader the things that are done are closely watched and mimicked by a group of people; these people are generally known as followers. In nursing, leadership is fundamental for the overall practice. For a nurse to hold such a title, he or she would have to embody the full package of what a leader should be.
Leadership at times can be a complex topic to delve into and may appear to be a simple and graspable concept for a certain few. Leadership skills are not simply acquired through position, seniority, pay scale, or the amount of titles an individual holds but is a characteristic acquired or is an innate trait for the fortunate few who possess it. Leadership can be misconstrued with management; a manager “manages” the daily operations of a company’s work while a leader envisions, influences, and empowers the individuals around them.
Support of a decentralized organizational philosophy can transform organizations, staff, and patients because it affects the culture, improves staff outlook, promotes personal involvement and encourages staff to reach higher levels of quality care. In my organization, nursing leaders should strive to involve all patient care units and staff in shared governance, educate unit leadership council chairs, and build on the positive aspects by empowering, motivating and developing staff members. These actions will increase creativity, responsibility, intellectual stimulation, and well-being.
The purpose of this paper is the formal interview of Nurse Betty to evaluate and illustrate her communication and relationship building skills. Communication and relationship building is one of the five core domains of nursing leadership ("Nurse Executive Competencies," 2015, p. 2). The nurse leader must possess all five domains to be an effective leader: Communication and relationship building; knowledge of the health care environment; leadership; professionalism; and business skills. Nurse Betty has been a nurse manager for multiple years in the Jewish Hospital health care system. She started her career as medical surgical nurse and soon after went to work in the emergency department and that is where she found her passion for the nursing
According to Yoder-Wise (2011), “Leadership is the use of personal traits to constructible and ethically influence patients, families, and staff through a process in which clinical and organizational outcomes are achieved through collective efforts” (p. 612). The following paragraphs will explain components of leadership of an anonymous healthcare facility.
Leadership is defined by Northouse (2013) as a transactional experience between persons whereby one individual influences a group of individuals who have a mutual goal. Leaders may hold authority attributed to them by the group, substantiated by how they are regarded, whether or not they have positional authority. In contrast to management, where the goal is to provide order through control, leadership is concerned with producing change through transformation and practical adjustments (Northouse, 2013). Because of the nature of nursing, its obligation to promoting health and healing of people, nursing leadership concentrates change efforts based on human needs and concurrently ponders the needs of administrations largely because they understand the interrelatedness of the two influences.
The purpose of this assignment is for the student to gain insight into nursing leadership roles by interviewing a local nursing leader. Using a structured and organized interview process, the student will be able to describe the leadership style and leadership skills of the nursing leader as well as reflection of personal leadership traits. The nursing leader chosen for this assignment is Jennifer Pierson, RN. I chose her because she is not only my step-mother, but has had a huge impact on my future career as a nurse. She has been a nurse now for 11 years, been at Children’s Hospital of the Kings Daughters, CHKD, for 9.5 years and has been a charge nurse for 8 years. Mrs. Pierson currently works in the pediatric intensive care unit, PICU, and feels she is in the best place for her skills and experience. This interview will discuss her leadership traits and style, then move on to the healthcare model used at her facility, and will conclude with how her facility, and herself, address challenges in healthcare.
The current state of healthcare is a dynamic, constantly evolving industry. The need for an innovative, transformative leader is critical for organizations to survival. "Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it." (Dwight Eisenhower, former US president). According to Porter-O’Grady, the current job market for healthcare executives are higher than nurses due to the constant changes of the healthcare industry and increase job demands. In recent weeks, one of the biggest healthcare systems announces that its chief nurse executive would now also be presidents of all hospital. This move was said to bring a standard of operating to all 11 hospital in the system. The evolution
However, as I read more literature about conflict competence and management during this course, I realized how vital this skill is when beginning to transition off the floor and going into management roles. According to Suominen and Zydziunaite (2014), “nursing leadership at all levels is a major issue, leaders, and the way leadership is performed, have an important role in nursing management” (Zydziunaite, Suominen, 2014
