I Have the Answer

In my 28 years of nursing leadership experience, including 15 as a Chief Nursing Officer, I’ve developed a refreshingly different approach - one that will help you see that the answer to that question is a resounding Yes! but which also has the power to build your confidence and skills as well as engage your team’s ownership without relying on audits and micromanagement.

They’ll start to become engaged, accountable owners of their own practice.

And you’ll find joy in your leadership again.

Proven Results

With my approach, nurse leaders have achieved:

• 100% reduction in contract labor

• Up to 60% reduction in nursing turnover

• 45% average improvement in nursing engagement scores

• 52% reduction in hospital-acquired conditions

• Successful introduction of new care delivery models

• Reset of toxic work environments into accountable, collaborative teams

I’ve created a toolkit with you in mind that will not only give you inspiration, but will give you practical strategies you can implement today to make a difference.

I also know that running a nursing unit while balancing family priorities can be exhausting. The guilt over where you’re spending your time is real. And the frustration with being “on” 24/7/365 can make you want to go back to the bedside.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. If you’d like to learn practices to help you find balance, you’ll want to explore the tool I created just for nurse leaders like you.

All these tools are available to you to explore on your own. But if you’d like some expert help from someone who’s been there, I’m happy to help:

What You’ll Get

1. A structured and objective assessment, returning a respectful expert opinion on what your and your team’s strengths are and how we can build on them. You’ll see, feel, and hear a difference in 30 days.

2. Within 7 days from the assessment, receive a clear, individualized plan that uses an evidence-based process to build on those strengths in order to address areas for improvement.

3. Minimum of weekly, one-hour support sessions focused on sustainable practices and tools to drive better team engagement and operational outcomes.

4. Measurable improvement within 60 days in a Key Performance Indicator of your choosing.

5. Evidence-based tools and strategies that you can use to sustain the culture you want.

All of this is delivered through respectful, person-centered, evidence-based practices - Strengths-based leadership, Appreciative Inquiry, and Reflective Practice - building confidence, engagement, and well-being while improving organizational outcomes.

The result: a culture of collaboration, ownership, connection, and patient-centered care.
