#WeNurses - Thursday 4th June 2020 8:30pm (GMT Standard Time) Who do we call a leader?

If you haven't joined in a tweet chat before it's very simple.    Here's a guide





 Chat Details

 

Hosted by WeNurses using #WeNurses

This chat is guest hosted by @NursingOpen

Leadership is one of the important characteristics identified for nurses. We are taught about leadership in nursing education programmes (many!) and are encouraged to think and act like leaders. We are given talks on leadership and management theories, differences between a leader and a manager and styles of effective leadership. That teaching and learning does not stop with nursing education programmes, as we often find ourselves participating in various leadership courses and programmes to improve our leadership and to become a ‘voice to lead’ as International Council of Nurses calls it.

 

Covid19 has placed  nursing and healthcare professionals at the forefront and their roles are highlighted and praised. We have been identified as ‘heroes’, ‘angels’, ‘the backbone of the healthcare system’ etc. But are we seen as leaders of the healthcare system? Does our contribution to healthcare range from prevention to rehabilitation design to service delivery; policy development to implementation and how this understood or recognised?

 

This Twitter chat, organised by @Wenurses and Nursing Open, provides nurses, midwives, pre-registration nursing and midwifery students an opportunity to explore meaning and views of leadership and nurse leadership?

 

Proposed Questions:

 

1.       What is leadership?

2.       How  nurses recognised as leaders, please provide examples?

3.       What do nurses need to develop as leaders?

4.       Is training in leadership required or are people naturally leaders)?

5.       Who should provide leadership training to nurses?

6.       Can nursing leadership learn from other healthcare professions?

7.       Can nursing leadership offer leadership to other healthcare professions?

Hiya, What is leadership? Actions and behaviours that people aspire to..leadership is wanting to help people evolve and progress. #wenurses
@AgencyNurse
04 June 2020 20:37
Leadership is about inspiring others, showing the way, being a role model, it's not about having all the answers but being prepared to find the answers together ... leadership is all about our actions and not the role we are in #WeNurses https://twitter.com/WeNurses/status/1268627345503641600

Mmmm tricky question ... i know lots of nurses who are great at recognising and celebrating leadership in others ... often awards can recognise leadership .... but i wonder if we need nursing leadership to be much more prevalent and recognised much more #WeNurses https://twitter.com/WeNurses/status/1268629872198529027
@richgamlin

@WeNurses Apologies for my negativity but I feel in many cases the term leader is used to describe a managerial grade. At times they don't lead, instead they set or enforce rules #WeNurses

@WeNurses I sometimes think as nurses we don’t always recognise ourselves as leaders. But I think if we look at our definitions of leadership we probably all have some great examples of those qualities #wenurses

@richgamlin @WeNurses managing and leading are very different, but not mutually exclusive #wenurses

@WeNurses Leadership is a way of being...you can learn to lead yourself, lead a group as small as a patient and family or as large as a hospital. You actions are what enable others see you as a leader. I see leadership all around me at work- it is contextual. #WeNurses

@WeNurses My initial instinct is yes, absolutely senior leaders need to keep in touch with practice clinically,but the senior role itself requires leadership at a strategic level.Perhaps this requires those in these roles to demonstrate effective leadership to those they manage...#wenurses

@mhldnurse_amy @WeNurses Would ineffective leaders have/ retain followers? #wenurses If leader are considered no good by those they are expected to lead perhaps an effective alternative leaders will emerge.

@bill_russell3 @WeNurses Unfortunately, yes, in my experience ineffective leaders can gain followers as a consequence of the culture of fear that can evolve over time. #WeNurses

@bill_russell3 @WeNurses In order for effective leadership to emerge from those that are ineffective, a great deal of courage and support is required. This wholly relies on those in senior positions to enable a culture of compassion and transparency. #WeNurses
