Abstract:
As we recover from the global pandemic, leadership is essential to help stabilize workforces, inspire nurses and re-construct health systems to enable nurses to provide humanistic care. This paper outlines a philosophy and value-driven leadership approach with its associated leadership capabilities framework. The Strengths-Based Nursing and Healthcare (SBNH) Leadership (SBNH-L) Capabilities Framework is designed to help leaders translate SBNH-L values into action. We outline steps to enable a leader to embody an SBNH leadership style and discuss how the SBNH-L Capabilities Framework can facilitate this process.
