Description
Mosby's Nursing Leadership & Management Online is an innovative online course that's adaptable to many learning situations because it
can be used as a stand-alone course, as a supplement to an existing class, or as a distance-learning course. The 16 online modules and
accompanying work text take a very practical, real-life approach to teaching leadership and management skills. The interactive online
environment engages users in the learning process through illustrations, pop-up resources, learning activities, and more. Drawing on
the experience of a nursing professor and a management consultant, it offers an understanding of both key nursing management practices
and important business concepts — merging theory, research, and practical experience in each online module. Topics cover a wide range
of management issues, such as delegation, communication, time management, problem solving, stress management, and legal/ethical considerations.
