HOW TO FIND THE LEADER WITHIN
I
think most of us who have known good leaders would agree with the often-quoted saying, “Leaders are not born; they’re made.” Leadership takes time, hard work and like most things in life, education and experience. Organizations spend a good deal of time and money
providing learning opportunities for employees to develop leadership skills. They also often provide orientations, internships, apprenticeships and residencies because they know leadership isn’t a quality that comes naturally. We’ve all known good managers and admired their
traits and qualities. They are critical thinkers with can-do attitudes who want to make things better for those they manage. They don’t just listen; they truly hear what staff members say. They think clearly and act decisively. They understand that leading often begins by following, and they try to walk in the shoes of those they lead. Leaders don’t have to be managers; leaders can emerge
at all levels and in many diff erent ways. We lead when we help others be the best they can be. I believe we all can be leaders. We all have leadership abilities; we just need to fi gure out how to tap into them. Follow your heart as you
work to move your career forward. I know you will fi nd the leader within. One of our features show- cases three nurse leaders who share a top leadership principle; another focuses on
tips for nurses leading the move toward population health management. For this
Nurse.com Special Edition magazine, readers in various leadership roles participated in a study. You can see some results in this issue: “Lead- ership Nursing Profi le. Are you ready to lead?” •
