Leadership Theory and Health Care
As Dr. Diane Mancino noted in this week’s media presentation, nurses, by their very nature, are leaders. They are leaders at the bedside, when interacting with a patient’s family members, in advocating for their patients, and when working on interdisciplinary teams. A nurse is responsible for many different aspects of a patient’s care to bring about positive change. When inefficiencies or problems are noted, the nurse must be an advocate and leader of change. Just how this is accomplished depends as much on the individual as the environment in which the change is required.
