One thing I learned after I was promoted was why I was promoted. I was pretty much doing many of the things on the list above except that I wasn't interested in promotion. I was just enjoying spreading my wings and experiencing being as professional as I could be. I never really thought much about being in supervision or management. In fact, it kind of scared me. When I was approached about it I refused at first, but when I finally did accept I found that many staff nurses were extremely negative and critical of the facility and never showed up for staff meetings. It was difficult to get any staff nurses involved in any activities beyond what they were required to do from the time they clocked in to the time they clocked out each day. The director of nursing wanted a management staff who was going to work with her and help her get her agenda accomplished. Who wouldn't? When you have the ability to choose from over 500 nurses to fill a hole in your management team you can be pretty picky.
