Contemplate the effectiveness of a nurse leader in a formal leadership role (charge nurse, director of nursing, nursing manager, administrator, or nursing instructor). This nurse could be a current manager, or a leader you identify from a past encounter. From the list, select “Nurse Executive Competencies.”
Write a three to four page paper (in addition to cover page and reference page) that analyzes the effectiveness of this leader in relation to all five of the AONE domains.
Include the following criteria when writing this paper:
Describe the nurse selected, including the title and scope of their current leadership role.
Analyze strengths and weaknesses of leader in all five domains (communication and relationship management, knowledge of health care environment, leadership, professionalism, and business skills). The “domain” is the large category, i.e. leadership.
Analyze how the leader you identified met or did not meet the specific characteristics listed under the domain. Make certain each of the specific characteristics under your chosen domain is addressed in your analysis. Use at least two competencies from each domain to describe the leadership of your chosen leader. The competency is the sub-category under a given domain, i.e. for leadership: systems thinking and change management. You may use any of the bullet points under the competency as part of your analysis.
Validate your analysis with personal experience and a minimum of three current scholarly sources. The AONE document should be cited and referenced. Your textbook, Leading and Managing in Nursing, may be considered as another scholarly source used for this assignment.
