Finishing Leadership and Management Degree. .. Now what?

[trinigrl78]

I've been a nurse for a little over three years and and due to finish a MSN at walden university next spring I have 2 classes left as well as an internship. I have secured an internship with a CNO at a local hospital.

Here is my dilemma all I have been thinking about is getting through the next class now that my studies are coming to a close I have to think of my future career. I would love to one day be in a leadership role but besides spending time on the floor gaining clinical experience it is extremely difficult to find anyone will to take me under their wing. I found my preceptor b/c I used to work there. How am I supposed to have any experience if no one wants to give me a chance?

Any advice from seasoned nurses?
