Questions for a school project

Hi,

I have to interview several nurse managers for a school project, so I was hoping someone could answer these 10 short questions for me. It would be a huge help!

1. There are many components that go into the nurse manager position.Can you discuss some of those components, and what you believe is themost important component for a nurse manager to have?

2. How would you describe leadership? How do you demonstrateleadership in the unit?

3. Healthcare and nursing is always changing. How do you envision theprofession of nursing as it changes? What advice do you have for nursesto embrace these changes?

4. Nursing is an extremely large profession, and while there are manyprofessional organizations, a large portion of nurses choose not to be apart of these organizations. How do you think we can increase theamount of members to help our nursing voices be heard?

5. There can be many challenges as a nurse manager. Tell me about someof the biggest or most difficult challenges you have to take in as amanger.

6. It can be difficult to get support sometimes for ideas or changes youmay have. Tell me about a time when this happened to you and what youdid to increase your support.

7. Discuss the three biggest accomplishments you've experienced so faras a nurse manager.

8. What advice do you have for graduating nurses?

9. What are the major development and training needs of the people inyour department? How do you identify them? What steps have you taken,or plan to take, to address these needs?

10. Having a positive, supportive work environment really can impactnurses attitudes on a unit. How do you keep a positive and supportivework environment?

    An interview is a back and forth discussion with someone. Answering questions on an internet message board is not an interview; it's us doing your homework for you. I had to interview an educator. I spoke with someone in person, and learned a lot more from the various tangents the interview went on than I would have from someone posting answers on a message board.

    Additionally, how can you verify the person on an anonymous message board who is answering these questions is who they say they are? You can't. And that's not a risk you should take for an assignment. What you need to do is get out there and talk face to face with someone. Call a local hospital or nursing home. Talk to someone who works in a clinic setting. Either way, get out there and make contact. You never know when someone you speak to in person for a school assignment will be someone to help you get your first job. That's the importance of networking.
