The SHAPE Framework: Empowering Millennials to Lead the Future of Health Care
Members of Generation Y (or Millennials) now make up more than 50% of those in the workplace. They are expected to comprise greater than 75% by 2025. The Millennial generation has brought new idiosyncrasies to the workplace, and most literature has focused on ways to manage these differences. The Baby Boom generation is retiring at an increasing pace, leaving ongoing leadership needs in the care of Millennials. Conversations must now shift from how to lead the Millennials to preparing them to lead others. The SHAPE framework highlights some of the idiosyncrasies of this generation and ways they can be leveraged when approa...

Education Resource Nurse: Engaging Clinical Nurses to Enhance the Patient Experience
This article describes a disruptive model that leverages nurse autonomy on an acute care medical-surgical hospital unit. The integration of an education resource nurse within existing resources is showing positive gains in 30-day readmission rates and specific patient experience metrics. The continued success of this newly created role is dependent on an adaptive capacity to leverage principles of complexity leadership and to grow the role within the ever-changing health care environment.

Challenges and Opportunities in Population Health: The Role of School Nurses as Complexity Leaders
The school nurse role parallels the growing complexity of health care, education, and the social needs of youth in the United States. The complex and chaotic environment of the school setting requires leaders to be flexible and to have the ability to recognize and tackle the ever-changing needs of this environment. School nurses are in a prime position to enact change and drive the culture of the community, giving it purpose, while allowing its members to have a focus on their work. Nurses, as complexity leaders, are positioned to understand that change is a continual process that stems from collaboration, complex systems ...

Human-Centered Leadership in Health Care: An Idea That's Time Has Come
The Human-Centered Leadership model, which is relevant for leaders at all levels in a complex health care system, embraces change from the inside out. The Human-Centered Leader (HCL) is embedded in the organization, rather than positioned above it, and recognizes the expertise and value of those who serve at the point of care. The HCL starts with a focus on self-awareness, self-compassion, self-care, and mindfulness while focusing on others through demonstration of the characteristics of an Awakener, a Connector, and an Upholder. As an Awakener, the HCL grows and cultivates the team through the development of individual gr...

Complexity Leadership in the Nursing Context
Consolidation through mergers and acquisitions is occurring across health care as a strategic move to address the disruptive forces of complexity. While consolidation is improving the overall fitness and viability of health care organizations, it is having the opposite effect on the professionals working within them who are reporting increasing rates of burnout from ongoing complexity in the health care environment. This happens in all organizations that try to respond to complexity with traditional bureaucratic leadership approaches. What is needed is to replace bureaucratic leadership with the networked approach of compl...

Hard Science and “Soft” Skills: Complex Relational Leading
Since the 1990s, complexity science has been utilized as a metaphor for understanding health care organizations and new ways of leading within them. In this article, 3 principles of complexity leadership put forth by Porter-O'Grady and Malloch in the text Quantum Leadership are explored: (1) wholes are not just the sum of their parts; (2) all health care is local; and (3) value is now the centerpiece of service delivery. Each of these principles is discussed from a 20th-century “organization as machine” perspective, a complexity science perspective, and a complex relational processes (CRP) view. The CRP lens provides a...

International Nursing: A Study of Sleep Quality Among Nurses and Its Correlation With Cognitive Factors
The objective of this study was to evaluate sleep quality and its relationship to cognitive factors among nurses. Sleep quality among nurses is an important issue, which requires more extensive study. Its correlation with cognitive ability has not been sufficiently considered. Five hundred forty nurses (66.3% female) working in 6 hospitals were selected as the sample of the study. Results show that nurses do not experience good quality of sleep. That is, 77.4% of the sample population of nurses have a poor quality of sleep, and nurses working the night shift have more sleep problems than other nurses. The results show that...
