This was a fantastic post, I really enjoyed reading it. Responsibility is a great strength to have. Maglione (2022) mentions one responsibility that comes along with being a nurse leader, including the ability to “recognize and address this potential for unethical practices, given the high risk for these behaviors to occur in health care settings” (para. 2). As a nurse leader you will have many other task and people you are responsible for, so having this as your top strength is an amazing asset to the care you provide. I also noticed you mentioned respect and service as characteristics you would like to strengthen for yourself. It is suggested by Honkavuo et al. (2018) that “Serving as an ethical and societal duty involves infinite dignity, equality and respect for the essence of human beings” (para. 1). These two characteristics work synergistically together, without one you can’t have the other.

Hello Jadium,
I liked reading through your post. I liked your primary role being speaking and pursuing truth. It is necessary to remain true when being nurses and dealing with our patients. An exceptional transformational leader is charismatic and able to use their knowledge and skill to motivate others in order to improve the overall mission of an organization whilst including those they wish to engage, creating a positive, shared work environment (Stazyk & Davis, 2020). Successful leadership is always a product of ongoing self-assessment and self-awareness (Marshall & Broome, 2017). I admire your strengths and hope you are able to strengthen the desired characteristics.

Hello Jadiam, I enjoyed reading your assessment post this week. One of the weaknesses you noted was communication. This technique is also a skill that I need to improve. Communication is one of good leadership's essential and valued traits in the current healthcare environment. The need for managers and leaders with expertise in this area has been linked directly to increased staff satisfaction, retention of nurses, increased quality of patient care, and organizational success (Fowler et al., 2021). With the changes around us with the current pandemic, a successful leader must have excellent communication skills to keep the team together and promote the latest changes in the healthcare environment.
Another quality of successful nursing leadership must be in the area of positivity and graciousness. This trait is also one that I need to work on. In my research this week, I discovered a type of leadership style referred to as a gracious leader. As we learn about the four prongs of the Quadruple Aim in the healthcare environment, this leader appears to support the work environment at the highest level. "Gracious leaders regard employee relationships and needs as a major priority while simultaneously promoting optimal outcomes for both the patients and the healthcare organization (Kroning et al., 2020, p. 48). These fantastic leaders care more about the people they represent than the power they have. They are a perfect combination of a leader that is giving, respectful, appreciative, caring, insightful, optimistic, understanding, and supportive (Kroning et al., 2020). These leaders, in my opinion, are what successful nursing leaders should strive to obtain. This article was inspiring, and I hope to work on these attributes as I continue in my career.
