Leadership Assessment

Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing
leadership ability because I lead by example, and enabling others to act comes with experience as
a leader and growth in a leadership role.
My leadership action plan will be to continue to lead by example and provide a good
example for my peers in my actions, as well as working on my ability to inspire others by my
words and leadership abilities. Ive modeled the way by setting an example for appropriate
behavior in my clinical practice by consistently following hospital policy, using patient safety
measures and conducting myself in an appropriate manner. I also model the way by following
through with what I say Im going to do, keeping my word. One of the practices I would like to
use more frequently would be inspiring a shared vision. I am passionate about Bon Secours
because we share Christian values, however I am not fully involved enough in nursing council to
be able to inspire peers about the future of Bon Secours, individual departments and various
teams. I believe for me to feel more comfortable inspiring a shared vision, I would have to
become more involved in the shared governance councils in the hospital, so I would know what I
am leading and inspiring my peers about and I can bring questions, comments and concerns to
the nursing council from my peers as well. My next steps would be to gain more information
about nursing councils and shared governance and join a committee with my current position, as
I gain full time employment after graduation I wish to become more involved in committees and
leadership throughout the hospital. I will know I have improved in this leadership skill when my
peers feel comfortable coming to with shared goals, visions and ideas to brainstorms and or share
with committees within the hospital.
