1. TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP: Empowering Nurses in Management & Practice

2. When you open your mouth you tell the world who you are

3. “When people respect someone as a person, they admire him
“When people respect someone as a person, they admire him. When they respect him as a friend, they love him. When they respect him as a leader, they follow him.”

4. It is not the position that makes the leader, it’s the leader that makes the position.
True leaders don’t seek leadership, they are usually victims of a purpose. It takes a leader to raise another.
The only thing that title can buy is a little time. Sooner, the truth will emerge.

5. WHAT DO YOU SEE Challenges / OPPORTUNITIES with regards to TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP ideas in your areas of strength; 1. Administration ? 2. Practice ? 3. Education ?

6. Leading from the Bottom
Always take the responsibility and blame for your people's mistakes.
Encourage your team to grow, learn and take on as much as they want to, at a pace they can handle.
Manage your time well and help others to do so too.
A good leader is a good reader.
Always give other people the credit for your successes
“.... Praise loudly, blame softly.” (Catherine the Great)

7. Fix your eyes on what you can do and not what you cannot change.
The recipe for perpetual ignorance is being satisfied with your own opinion and content with your own knowledge.
Fix your eyes on what you can do and not what you cannot change.

8. Lead or Bleed…
Good suggestions can come from anyone. Respect and promote creativity and innovation. Reward integrity and applaud professionalism.
People often pay lip service to the reality of change; so do what you have to do to effect the necessary change and explain later.
Watch out for those who present their personal agenda as if it is for common good.
As much as possible carry people along but be ready to make hard decisions.
Don’t hire someone you can’t fire!

9. You Don’t Need a Title to be a LEADER
TITLE without a MANTLE is a daily BATTLE
Power & Influence Beyond Formal Authority

10. SERVICE
The true leader serves. Serves people. Serves their best interests and in doing so will not always be popular, may not always impress. But because true leaders are motivated by loving concern than a desire for personal glory, they are willing to pay the price.
-Eugene Habecker
