This blog was
created as a component of a Nursing Leadership course I was in. Over the course
of the past 11 weeks there have been many discussions, activities, and
experiences with leadership. If there is anything thing I have gained from this
course, and the experience of developing this blog, it is this:
Leadership is not a job title or having a position
of authority. Leadership is a quality, one that each of us can possess. It
takes a conscious effort to develop leadership skills. Most importantly, though,
we each have the potential to be a leader in our current role!
Qualities of an Effective Leader:
- Honesty
- Commitment
- Drive
- Compassion
- Synergy
- Emotional Intelligence
- Courage
As I move into my final quarter of my nursing
program, and brace to enter a field I have worked to prepare for, I am ready to
take on the role of leadership in every area I work in. I am ready to be a
nurse that help leader her profession to bigger and better places. I am ready
to be a woman who challenges the barriers placed solely because of my gender!
I challenge you to examine your current situation,
professional and personal, and determine how you can be a leader to enact
greatness.
