Transformational Leadership
Transformational Leadership
Professional nursing organizations I currently participate in
I am a member of the American Nurses Association (ANA). I joined ANA to access the many professional development opportunities and the support for nurses across the country the organization offers. Through ANA, I have achieved high standards of nursing practice, including ensuring a safe and ethical work environment, advocating for nurses’ health and wellness, and health care problems impacting the nursing profession and patients. My professional values and career goals align with the ANA mission to promote and improve the quality of health care for every individual. Additionally, ANA understands and promotes the power of nursing and its relevance in the healthcare system and drives ethical obligations for every member, a reason I became a member.
Nursing certifications or continuing education that (graduate degree) might fit into my future plans
I currently hold the CCRN certification, a specialty nurses’ certification that allows nurses to offer direct care to critically ill adult patients irrespective of their geographical location. It is vital to continuing excellence in acute or critical care nursing. I plan to change it to CCRN_K because I’m changing roles from ICU to supervision. The CCRN_K is also suitable and appropriate as I seek membership in the American Organization of Nurse Executives (ANOE), which involves nurses who design, facilitate, and manage care. The organization offers leadership development opportunities and advocacy to advance nursing practice, something I wish to be a part of.
Aspects of the TEACH values discussed that would most benefit my work environment if adopted
Transformational leadership skills are essential in my practice as I intend to drive change and inspire new approaches to doing things, and harness team members’ creativity to address areas that need change. Transformational leadership skills will be critical in my supervisory role in the dynamic healthcare environment. I am open to new ways of thinking and ideas, inspire people to see and do things differently by broadening their minds, committed to active listening, tolerate intelligent risks, and willing to accept responsibility. I believe in teamwork and trust my team members to deliver and inspire everyone’s participation in the course of action.
The aspect of the TEACH values that would be more influential and beneficial in my work environment would be teamwork. Teamwork aligns with the skill set of transformational leaders (Ree & Wiig, 2019). I have to adopt teamwork skills to ensure team members are emotionally committed to the team’s responsibilities. Moreover, I am committed to adopting innovative ways of working as a team and improving team processes to ensure a better experience of teamwork and team viability. I will encourage team members to ensure the ongoing development of values and skills to encourage leadership in them. Every team member has to demonstrate leadership ability and lead actions and changes. Embracing teamwork best practices will ensure increased confidence and greater team cohesion, which is positive and needed for the team’s success (Ree & Wiig, 2019). To ensure teamwork, I will build a diverse and inclusive team, clearly define each member’s roles and responsibilities, cultivate trust within the team, promote clear and frequent communication, promote autonomous decision-making, and ensure team meetings are productive through active participation. I will focus on individual requirements and establish strong relationships with team members to help achieve the team’s objectives. I will enhance intrinsic motivation associated with low burnout and increased engagement with the team’s activities. Additionally, I will respect every team member’s values, personality, and background and demonstrate compassion, trust, and empathy. I will also create a sense of collective identity for the team to encourage collaboration and teamwork.
