Nursing Leadership, Transitioning to New Roles, & New Graduate Nurses
- The course is NURS 3002
- Dates are November 14 & 15, 2024
What is Leadership?
- Leadership is the process of pursuing and influencing the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of others toward a specific goal.
- Leaders guide others through adversity, uncertainty, hardships, disruptions, transformations, and significant challenges, while aiming to challenge the status quo.
- A nursing leader is any nurse who has the courage to achieve goals related to delivering quality healthcare. Passion, rather than position, drives this courage.
- Leadership is a dimension of practice, encompassing all areas of nursing, not just formal leadership roles.
Nursing Leadership & Management
- A nursing leader can be any nurse who demonstrates the courage to fulfill a vision focused on achieving quality healthcare goals.
- This courage stems from passion, not just from a position of authority.
- Nurses are leaders in client care, regardless of their formal position.
Nursing Leadership Theories
- Three main categories exist:
- Behavioral, where leaders are developed and learn their approach.
- Situational, where leadership adapts to the specific situation.
- Contemporary, focusing on building relationships.
Various Nursing Leadership Styles and Theories in Practice
- Transformational Leadership Theory: Leaders use vision to drive goal accomplishment.
- Transactional Leadership Theory: Leaders expect adherence to regulations.
- Situational Leadership Theory: Different situations require different leadership approaches.
- Democratic Leadership Style: Members collaborate to make decisions.
- Autocratic Leadership Style: Leader holds decision-making power.
- Participative Leadership Style: All members contribute to decision-making.
- Servant Leadership Style: Leaders prioritize the needs of others to help them reach their full potential.
- Authentic Leadership: This highlights strengths, fosters a positive work environment, and promotes caring attitudes.
Authentic Leadership and New Graduate Nurses
- Retaining new grad nurses (NGNs) is vital for addressing nursing shortages.
- NGNs often leave for various reasons, including lack of support, stress, and incivility.
- Authentic leadership plays a key role in job satisfaction and reducing NGN turnover.
- This style helps reduce incivility, emotional exhaustion, and enhances role clarity and social acceptance.
- Authentic leadership is essential to supportive work environments for NGNs.
Transition to Professional Practice
- Stages in the transition process include orientation, doing, being, and knowing, often encompassing shock, crisis, and transition.
- These are often categorized by months.
New Graduate Nurses (NGN) in Transition
- NGNs face significant challenges during their transition.
- This includes increased awareness of professional responsibility and demands of the university program.
RPN to RN Role Transition
- A qualitative study in Ontario examined RPN transitions to RN.
- RPNs often feel unprepared for the demands of a university program and for increased professional responsibility.
- Transition takes time and requires knowledge and skills learned through both BScN and work experience.
- Increased self-esteem, confidence, and feelings of accomplishment are part of successful transitions.
Emotional Intelligence
- Emotional intelligence of leaders is a key trait in nursing.
- Managers with strong emotional intelligence help nurses feel that their work is meaningful, allowing them to influence and improve their work environment.
- Emotional intelligence includes self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management.
Promoting Healthy Work Environments
- Structural empowerment includes support, knowledge, resources, and learning opportunities.
- Spirit at work fosters a sense of community and contribution to something larger than oneself.
- Resonant leadership emphasizes relationships, building relationships, and managing emotions in the workplace.
- Healthy workplace environments are crucial for nurse job satisfaction, organizational commitment, psychological empowerment, and promoting nurse retention.
