What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired.

Assignment: The Nurse Leader as Knowledge Worker

The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter Drucker in his book, The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services. Does this sound familiar?

Nurses are very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.

In this Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker. You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of nurse as knowledge worker.

Reference: Drucker, P. (1959). The landmarks of tomorrow. New York, NY: HarperCollins Publishers.

To Prepare:

  • Review the concepts of informatics as presented in the Resources.
  • Reflect on the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
  • Consider how knowledge may be informed by data that is collected/accessed.

The Assignment:

  • Explain the concept of a knowledge worker.
  • Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
  • Develop a simple infographic to help explain these concepts.
  • Your PowerPoint should Include the hypothetical scenario you originally shared in the Discussion Forum. Include your examination of the data that you could use, how the data might be accessed/collected, and what knowledge might be derived from that data. Be sure to incorporate feedback received from your colleagues’ responses.

1. Discuss how the technical properties of the WPPSI–III differ from those of the WISC–IV.
2. Discuss the following two-part question: When should young children be given an intelligence test? What would results be used for?

Discuss the process by which you decided upon the variables to include in your dataset.

/in /by

Consider the dataset that you created last week. Review the variables/data through the lens of the readings provided in chapters 6 & 7 – particularly the concept of the “want versus should selves.”
Discuss the process by which you decided upon the variables to include in your dataset. Do the variables  represent data points that you “want” to analyze or know more about? Or……does your dataset actually have information that the firm “should” be reviewing? In other words, were the variables that you selected influenced by your own internal bias/conflict between what you “want” to see/analyze, versus what you “should” be measuring? Did you select variables that were “conventional?” Organizations often analyze “conventional” data metrics because these represent the industry norm, as opposed to what they actually “should” be measuring in alignment with their specific mission. Ironically, “conventional” data is often the most “convenient” – thus the same root.

How might you convince stakeholders that a new analytics system/process was needed?

/in /by

After reviewing chapter 7 of the text, prepare a 350-word (minimum) essay describing how the “escalation of commitment” has influenced the data collection, measurement, and analysis process at your own organization. Has this helped or hindered the decision-making efforts and strategic planning at your firm? If you were responsible for analyzing the performance data at your organization and recognized that the metrics being used were irrelevant and/or antiquated, how might you convince stakeholders that a new analytics system/process was needed? If the organization has already invested resources to evaluate “conventional” metrics (i.e. escalation of commitment), what would be your strategy for helping the firm move from a “conventional” (convenient) analytics process toward something more innovative (unconventional and/or inconvenient)?
