Leading Change and Transforming Practice

Supplemental Digital Content is Available in the Text. Many nurse managers transition from proficient bedside nurses to leadership roles without formal leadership training. Their new role moves beyond the bedside of affecting an individual patient outcome to a position where their leadership behaviors, decisions, and actions impact the staff, patients, and families on a unit and organizational level. While new nurse managers are coached and mentored by their director, there is still an opportunity to provide a more standardized and structured approach to ensure optimal development and outcomes. A Nurse Manager Residency program supports the new leader by providing a forum for education, leadership development, and mentorship to demonstrate the critical components of a successful leader that promote staff engagement, patient experience, and excellence in nursing.
