Description
This course will prepare nursing students for intraprofessional and interprofessional leadership through an interdisciplinary perspective that includes leadership psychology, an understanding of organization behavior and politics, as well as reflective practice to appreciate the impact of personal spirituality, ethics, and values on leadership roles and effectiveness. Students will examine the psychology of leadership by studying the personal qualities of successful leaders and the inner drive for power. Particular attention will be given to the ways in which culture and gender influence individuals and groups and their identities and dynamics. Throughout the semester, students will integrate values, cultural sensitivity, and spirituality into health leadership and ethical decisions to promote comprehensive, holistic care as the foundation of a just society.
