It is not uncommon for nurses to think of leaders as those with an “official” leadership title or role – Nurse Manager, Director, Vice President, CEO. However, all of us are leaders in various ways in our daily professional lives – whether formally or informally. Do you sit on a committee for your unit, hospital, practice, or academic setting? Do you function in the charge nurse role? Are you a preceptor or mentor? Do you respectfully voice concerns you notice in your work setting to those who have the authority to help change the situation? Are you seen by peers as someone they can go to for clinical or professional advice?
These are just a few of the multiple examples of being a leader, whether you are in a formal leadership role or not. Think about your practice on the unit clinically and professionally. Identify ways you currently function as a leader and identify ways you believe you could grow as a leader. Consider opportunities where you could showcase your leadership.
AACN’s National Teaching Institute in May in Boston is fast approaching. Are you planning to attend? If so, you have demonstrated leadership in terms of ensuring your own professional development. If you are interested in focusing on developing your leadership skills, there are several sessions at NTI to help you in specific ways – sessions related to AACN Chapter Leadership, authentic leadership, and leadership in using evidence-based practice and quality improvement techniques. In addition, bringing the information and innovations you learn about back to your colleagues is another example of demonstrating leadership. I challenge you to consider how you use leadership skills in your daily life and how you can continue to show and grow your leadership!
