Colleen Wedderburn Tate, Independent Nurse/Healthcare Systems Consultant, London, UK

Description
As we enter the 21st century, the debate about leaders and leadership in nursing continues unabated. But with all this talk, who has time to lead? Often, we theorize so much about that we have no puff left to actually do it... On top of this, the whole concept is surrounded by so much myth and mystique that we're not even sure what it is, and who's doing it! This book aims to remove this mystique and explode some of the myths. It puts leadership and leaders into the category "human being", recognizing that every health professional has a responsibility to lead.

Audience
Trained nurses in hospital and community, NHS and private, post-basic students, managers, educators
