Abstract:
This paper describes a mission and values pilot program implemented across a healthcare network and co-led by a nurse healthcare leader. The aim of this paper was to support staff, physicians and volunteers to learn about and incorporate organizational mission and values into their work and care. The paper reviews the program's development, implementation and evaluation. The benefits of integrating mission and values into work and workplace interactions, along with applications for healthcare leaders, are discussed. Such a program can provide insights for leaders to foster joy in work, bolster retention and enable the healthcare workforce to actualise mission-driven work and care provision.
