Nursing Leadership

[mnr15]

Hi!

I'm a fourth nursing student from Ontario, Canada and I am working on an assignment for my nursing leadership course. I am to interview a registered nurse and discuss the topic of leadership with them. The interview is to be done via telephone, email, facebook messages, skype, etc. I thought it would be interesting to see what kind of responses I would get from allnurses.com.

Therefore, if you think "leadership" particularly resonates with you, I would love to hear your opinions! The following questions are to help guide responses.

Do you see yourself as a leader?

Tell me about your path to leadership?

How do you lead?

What is your leadership style?

How has your leadership style changed?

How did you learn to be a leader?

Who are your leader role models?

How do you see the role of nursing leadership in the future?

What skills do you think I need to be a strong nurse leader in the future?

What are some current and future challenges in nursing leadership (from your perspective)?

(some examples of challenges and issues in nursing can include: gender issues, culture issues, role issues, informatics and technology issues, intergenerational issues, interprofessional issues, political activism, emotional intelligence)

Thank you!
