Personal Leadership Philosophies
Nursing leadership is crucial in achieving high-quality care to the patient and ensures that there are favorable outcomes in the organization. Effective leadership ensures that there is a healthy relationship that promotes mutual benefits for both the organization and the respective employees (Duggan, Aisaka, Tabak, Smith, Erwin & Brownson, (2015). A leader promotes cohesion, influences, and advocates for patients and employee needs.
Core Value
Values help nurses and other nursing professionals to provide quality health care to patients. Moreover, it enhances their interaction with the other colleagues. Caring, empathy, effective communication, integrity, and servant leadership are the core values that guide my practice. Through caring and empathy values, it has enabled me to provide individualized care to the patients. Besides, I have been able to enhance career development for other nurses, although at times, it may not be favorable for me to do so (Marshall & Broome, 2017). Effective communication has significantly impacted my career. I can understand patients and provide quality health care to them. Moreover, I can understand the needs of the patients and address them.I am devoted to guiding emerging nurses to adjust to nursing practice.
Mission / Vision Statement
My mission is to ensure that there are holistic and mutual benefits of all nurses through influencing them to be better. Also, through this interaction, I am able to learn about my shortcomings and improve them to become a better leader.
Analysis of Clifton Strengths Feedbacks to Colleagues
Clifton’s assessment is essential in a nurse since it helps to discover what best for and an individual, and how they can develop their talents into strengths. Also, it enables the usage of personalized results to maximize one’s potentials (Gallup, 2019). In nursing practice, nurses should always learn from their past mistakes to become better leaders. Nurses should always influence others to become better in their day to day activities. As a leader, I strive to bring the best in students in my unit. I shape them on how to be better individuals in the future.
Despite, the challenges that exist, nurses should work for greater of all, no matter the problems that they may experience. As a nurse, I always perform my duties professionally and follow all guidelines outlined in a nursing career. The nursing profession is ever-changing, and nurses need to adjust accordingly. The only way to do so is to ensure that I am updated with the advancements. A nurse should always take responsibility for their actions and always be accountable. I make it my obligation to promote the welfare of others, even if it does not please me (Gallup, 2019). My strategic role has been emphasized because I am a nurse in charge of the unit. This role has enabled me to manage conflicts in the group. Moreover, I can identify the issues that are of significance to the unit and solve them. Also, I learn from others, and this has made me an effective leader.
Behaviors I wish to Strengthen
In the unit I am in charge of, there are behaviors that I seek to promote. There is no teamwork among the employees, and this has affected operations in the unit. Moreover, I would strive to encourage my personal development as well as of those of my subordinates.
Plans to Improve the Two Behaviors’
Through team-building activities of the employees’ cohesion will be promoted. My subordinates will be able to offer a helping hand to each other and enhance quality health care in the clinical setting. Also, I will improve my leadership skills by advancing my education, as well as seeking political positions. This will ensure that I can effectively advocate the needs of the patients and the welfare of all employees.
