Leading via caring-healing: the fourfold way toward transformative leadership
1University of Colorado Health Sciences Center Denver Colorado, USA.
Abstract:
This article explores an inner path of transformative leadership, guided by caring and healing. This fourfold path for visionaries, healers, teachers, and leaders converge with caring-healing practices rooted in nursing's history and its most contemporary theories. Together they serve to remind us about the purpose of our work and how our life can speak through compassionate administrative service. This fourfold path of leading, embedded in the hidden meaning of the word vocation (Latin for "voice," as in giving voice to inner calling of caring-healing), may be the primary source of nursing's survival in this 21st century.
