Author Uren, M. openurl 
  Title Nursing: A model for management: Why nurses are well equipped to be leaders of the future? Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nurse managers; Nursing; Leadership  
  Abstract The subject of nursing leadership is approached by reviewing the literature of two prominent nursing theorists, Patricia Benner and Jean Watson, and the literature of transformational leadership. Common themes are identified. An exhortation is offered to nurses to consider that the caring characteristics of nurses are what is required in the corporate world of management. Chapter 1, questions whether nursing and management are different worlds or shared realities. It outlines the author's experience of practising as a manager in a complex organisation and the seeming barriers that exist between managers and nurses and management and nursing. A questioning of those barriers became the impetus for the review. Chapter 2, outlines the work of Patricia Benner and Jean Watson. Caring is identified as a core concept which is said to differ significantly from a conventional understanding of helping and is inextricably linked to a profound understanding of what it means to be human. Chapter 3, reviews the literature of contemporary managers who are exploring a transformed approach to leadership and management. Six themes are identified that are common to nursing theory and transformational leadership theory. Chapter 4, acknowledges that despite the similarities between nursing and contemporary management thought, there remains a gap between nurses and management. Rather than feeling optimistic about the future, and confident in assuming leadership roles, many nurses feel defeated and fearful about the future. It is suggested that this may be a consequence of bad experience of leadership, of loss of joy of caring and of failure to value the strength residing in the collective community of nurses. Nurses are encouraged to recognise that their knowledge and experience of caring and wholeness, healing, sharing and enabling, are the attributes that equip them to be leaders of the future health and corporate world.

  Title Interdisciplinary team leadership: A revisionist approach for an old problem? Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Journal of Nursing Management Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue 6 Pages 364-370  
  Keywords Leadership; Multidisciplinary care teams; Organisational change  
  Abstract In this paper the author argues that the term interdisciplinary team leadership should be embraced cautiously. Preliminary research suggests that interdisciplinary team leadership is a model of shared leadership that requires more development if it is to become the cornerstone of interdisciplinary team practice in a radically reforming health sector. Stewardship is proposed as a potential philosophy for interdisciplinary team leadership, and a new, shared leadership role of practice leader is suggested.

  Title Leadership development: Supporting nursing in a changing primary health care environment Type Journal Article
  Year 2002 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 18 Issue 2 Pages 24-32  
  Keywords Leadership; Professional development; Primary health care; Nursing  
  Abstract The author argues that the involvement of nurses in the decision-making of health organisations is essential to maximise the contribution of nurses and promote positive outcomes for patients. She suggests that development of leadership skills will make nurses aware of power structures in the health system and allow them to become interdependent health professionals in primary health organisations (PHO). The particular competencies discussed are those proposed by Van Maurik (1997), namely ability to understand and manage organisational politics, work facilitatively with people and circumstances, and build a feeling of purpose.

  Title Advanced nursing practice and the nurse practitioner: New Zealand nursing's professional project in the late 20th century Type
  Year 2005 Publication Abbreviated Journal Massey University Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nurse practitioners; History; Policy; Leadership; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract This thesis examines the forces influencing the development of contemporary advanced nursing practice in New Zealand. It begins with an historical approach to explore the various meanings of advanced nursing practice from the late 1800s through the first years of the 21st century. Seven historical understandings of the meaning of 'advanced' nursing practice emerge. The author's analysis of the broad scope of New Zealand nursing history, including a case study of the development and implementation of the nurse practitioner, draws on theoretical perspectives from sociology, political science, and nursing. She develops a “framework of critical factors for nursing to take into account when considering how to ensure the profession is able to deliver on its great potential to improve the health of New Zealand communities”. Examining the work of a range of nursing leaders, past and present, and drawing on the work of political scientist, John Kingdon, the author describes the work of several nurses as “policy entrepreneurship.”

  Title How will transformative primary health care nursing leadership facilitate better health outcomes for Southlanders? Type
  Year 2005 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Leadership; Nursing; Primary health care  
  Abstract Changes within the New Zealand health system have led to an emphasis on primary health care. The New Zealand government and the Southland District Health Board have identified that nurses can make significant contribution to improving the primary health outcomes for New Zealanders. However, within Southland there exist barriers to nurses influencing health outcomes. A Southland draft Primary Health Care Nursing Strategic Plan 2005 recommended that the employment of a primary health care nursing leader would reduce these barriers and lead to a comprehensive primary health care nursing service. This dissertation argues, using literature, that the employment of a transformative nursing leader, using a facilitative style, would implement changes that would develop a community responsive nursing service, establish a primary health care educational structure and ensure quality nursing care. Successful implementation would occur as the leader facilitates experiential learning within groups and with individuals to review current experiences and implement transformative primary health care nursing changes that improves health for all. The dissertation introduces the background to the changing primary health care environment in New Zealand and to the Southland current situation in chapter one. Chapter two describes the unique features of transformative leadership style and how it is applies to nursing and specifically to Southland's changing primary health care environment. The chapter specifically emphasises the role of and the art of facilitation which is a critical transformative leadership process. Chapter three describes the process of the experiential learning cycle, which the author argues will improve health outcomes, when used by the transformative leader to enable nurses to learn from their experiences and make nursing changes that improve health care. Chapter four addresses the dissertation question by describing how transformative leadership will facilitate the experiential learning process to Southlanders and improve health outcomes, reduce inequalities and increase accessibility through a comprehensive primary health care nursing service.

  Title Education leadership in the clinical health care setting: A framework for nursing education development Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Nurse Education in Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 6 Issue 6 Pages 404-410  
  Keywords Organisational change; Law and legislation; Nursing; Education; Leadership  
  Abstract This paper describes how a new framework for clinical nursing education was introduced at Counties Manukau District Health Board. The project was initiated in response to the significant legislative and post registration nursing education changes within New Zealand. The journey of change has been a significant undertaking, and has required clear management, strong leadership, perseverance and understanding of the organisation's culture. The approach taken to managing the change had four stages, and reflects various change management models. The first stage, the identification process, identified the impetus for change. Creating the vision is the second stage and identified what the change would look like within the organisation. To ensure success and to guide the process of change a realistic and sustainable vision was developed. Implementing the vision was the third stage, and discusses the communication and pilot phase of implementing the nursing education framework. Stage four, embedding the vision, explores the process and experiences of changing an education culture and embedding the vision into an organisation. The paper concludes by discussing the importance of implementing robust, consistent, strategic and collaborative processes that reflect and evaluate best educational nursing practice.
