New York Organization for Nursing Leadership’s Post

Worth a read! Interesting takeaways from the Advisory Board on the results from the 2024 American Organization for Nursing Leadership (AONL) survey.

🌟 Leadership in Action: Sylvain Trepanier, DNP, RN, CENP, FAONL, FAAN 🌟 I had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Sylvain Trepanier, DNP, RN, CENP, FAONL, FAAN, System Chief Nursing Officer at Providence, wherein he delved deep into the evolving role of nursing leadership. Dr. Trepanier, a trailblazer in healthcare, has been instrumental in piloting virtual nursing at Providence—an initiative that has not only improved patient outcomes but also provided much-needed support to our dedicated nurses. But what truly resonated with me was his emphasis on work-life balance. As leaders, we often find ourselves caught up in the relentless demands of our roles, but Dr. Trepanier's approach is refreshingly different. He shared that when he’s on vacation, he removes his work email. This simple yet powerful act sends a clear message: trust in your team, and lead by example by taking the time to recharge. It’s a practice that I find incredibly inspiring, especially as the CNO of NPHub. Leadership isn’t just about driving results; it’s about creating a culture where your team feels empowered and supported. Dr. Trepanier’s philosophy is a reminder that our actions as leaders speak louder than words. #NursingLeadership #WorkLifeBalance #HealthcareInnovation #VirtualNursing #TrustYourTeam #LeadershipMatters

The future of nursing leadership is here, and it’s time to consider the importance of trust. As I near the end of my first leadership elective at TWU, I reflect on trust and the developing nursing leader. Evidence indicates that trust is critical in the nurse and nurse-leader relationship. The Registered Nurses Association of Ontario provides ten tips for transformational leaders to build relationships and trust (RNAO, 2014). These tips include demonstrating respect, utilizing participatory decision-making, learning conflict management, keeping commitments, aiming to influence performance positively, providing meaningful support to your patients and colleagues, being visible, accepting responsibility for your mistakes, assuming responsibility for those in your care, and giving credit willingly. Trust-based nursing leadership and trust in the organization will retain nurses, drive productivity, and increase work-related well-being. This elective’s readings and assignments have shaped my perspective on being a trustworthy leader. Trust is a critical element of the daily work of effective nurse leaders, and building trust in relationships is essential knowledge for intentional practice changes for all developing nurse leaders to foster. #NurseLeadership #LeadershipJourney #EmpowerNurses #ChangeAgents #ServantLeadership #TransformationalLeadership #Trust

If consultants like us can't be there, how am I supposed to help my clients innovate.Such a shame, I will be in London. Would love to have been able to go, not to mention to take all I learned and saw back to policy makers and change agents i work with every day. Nurses are more than consultants. Check out our podcast, "Tactical Scrubs" then see if "consultants" shouldnt be there. #innovation

Check out one of Duke Health's nursing leaders on the latest episode of The Handoff: "Dr. Joni Watson speaks with Dr. Tara Kinard, Associate Chief Nursing Officer at Duke Population Health Management Office and a clinical associate at the Duke University School of Nursing. They explore the critical intersection of nursing leadership, self-care, and education, and the profound impact of personal wellness on professional effectiveness. Dr. Kinard shares her journey through personal challenges, highlighting how prioritizing self-care has been essential in enhancing her decision-making, leadership style, and the ability to support her team and patients. This episode delves into practical strategies for integrating wellness into daily routines, emphasizing its significance in fostering resilience, improving patient care, and advancing nursing practice amidst the complexities of healthcare today."

November to Remember: Leading with Heart This week, our nursing team participated in a thought-provoking activity as part of our "November to Remember: Leading with Heart" initiative. We opened the floor to our incredible staff, giving them a platform to share their expectations and desires for their nursing leaders. The insights we gained were invaluable and will directly shape our leadership approach moving forward. Here are some key takeaways: Open Communication: Our nurses value transparency, active listening, and approachable leaders who foster a safe space for sharing ideas and concerns. Support and Mentorship: A strong desire for mentorship, professional development opportunities, and recognition for their hard work was expressed. Shared Decision-Making: Nurses want to be involved in decisions that impact their work environment and patient care. We are incredibly grateful for the honest and heartfelt feedback from our team. This activity reinforced our commitment to building a supportive and empowering environment where every nurse feels valued and heard. #NovemberToRemember #LeadingWithHeart #NurseLeadership #EmployeeEngagement #ValuingOurNurses

Taking the step to offer yourself, your talents and your experience for Boards will always bring growth and learning if you let it. Nurses do have a perspective that is valuable for many organizations. Would love to hear from others how you have navigated the paradoxes that boards face?

NURSING LEADERSHIP ROLES HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO PROMOTE THE FAILURE OF NURSING LEADERS For far too long, the systems and structures in place have set nurse leaders up for failure, rather than success. It's time to acknowledge that what may have worked in the past is no longer serving us, and will not serve us in the future of nursing. But there is hope! By rethinking everything we've done and challenging the status quo, we can create a new path forward. It's time to redesign nursing leadership roles to promote growth, support, and success.

Had another “jam session” today with a nursing leader - we TOTALLY geeked out about collaborative decision-making Trauma-responsive care cultures Improving birth outcomes Birth trauma mitigation Secondary traumatic stress in nurses 💃💃💃💃 while the office manager asked for a walk. She noted that when patients aren’t activated, they’re not engaged. I cheered I noted that when patients aren’t engaged, nurses don’t have the tools to confidently support Where They Are At. She cheered. It’s so inspiring and energizing to expand my nursing leadership network. The work feels less lonely, more powerful, and that much more effective 🤝🫶 What topics do you have jam sessions about? #obstetricviolence #perinatalmentalhealth #laboranddeliverynurse #postpartumnurse #traumainformedcare
