  2. One of Four Key IOM Messages IOM (December 2010) The Future of Nursing

  3. The Evidence on Nursing Leadership • Many current nurse leaders “fell into their positions” and often did not received orientation, coaching or mentoring. • Nurse leaders play a critical role in the recruitment and retention of staff. • Nurse leaders play a key role in the establishment of healthy work environments. • Recruitment of nurses into leadership roles can be very challenging. • The expectations of nurse managers have significantly increased over the past decade and there is greater reliance on charge nurses to manage clinical leadership issues. • By the end of the decade, succession planning will be a critical issue for nurse leaders.

  4. The Study • Exploratory Descriptive design with a goal to learn about the perspectives of current charge nurses on frontline leadership development. • Conducted in the Spring of 2010 during 10 charge nurse workshops in South Florida with 354 study participants. • Survey included open and closed ended questions designed to determine the following: • Leadership qualities needed by Frontline Leaders • Role challenges • Role satisfiers • Interest in applying for formal leadership roles

  11. Implications • The Charge Nurse role is very challenging in today’s environment. • Charge Nurses need ongoing competency development to keep pace with changes in the system. • Strong Interdisciplinary Teamwork is needed to promote change but managing team conflict is challenging. • Developing and coaching staff is a key role satisfier and should be used to encouragement nurses to assume charge. • Charge Nurses are considered to be a key group to recruit from for formal leadership positions but many are ambivalent about moving into these roles.
