Question

This week, reflect on your perception of change theory, management roles and nursing leadership, communication conflict, and the nurse management role in patient care as it has evolved over the course of your RN-BSN program at WCU. Identify specific leadership models you support, and compare and contrast communication techniques for patient-centered care effectiveness. How does your academic work support evidence of meeting the following?

Answer 1

Effective clinical leadership has been linked to a wide range of functions. It is a requirement of hospital care, including system performance, the achievement of health reform objectives, timely care delivery, system integrity and efficiency, and is an integral component of the health care system. The importance of effective clinical leadership in ensuring a high-quality health care system that consistently provides safe and efficient care. Clinical leadership has also been identified as a key driver of health service performance, with the Committee on Quality of Healthcare suggesting considerable improvements in quality can only be achieved by actively engaging clinicians and patients in the reform process.

Leadership is a process used to persuade and to influence the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours of others regarding certain outcomes.

I am expecting a Resonant Leadership for patient-centred care effectiveness, while people are eager to work, inspired.

Resonant Leaders manage negative emotions, using them carefully, consciously and appropriately. Such leaders exude emotions that are contagious and affect all around them. These leaders are consciously attuned to people, focus them on a common cause, build a sense of community, and create a climate that unleashes peoples' passion, energy, and unified spirit. They are able to remain calm and stay focused in order to manage themselves and others effectively under stress and/or when dealing with ambiguous circumstances. Resonant leaders also facilitate empowerment, acting in ways that leave the people around them (colleagues, team members, employees, suppliers, community members, etc.) feeling stronger and more capable. They encourage participation and teamwork by staying intensely in touch with what those they lead are thinking and feeling to motivate and energize them.
Resonant work environments support health and well-being, encourage collaboration and innovation, engage and motivate employees, and ultimately lead to improved overall performance.
