Collaboration Café
During your practicum this week you were asked to focus on the role of the Clinical Nurse Leader in shared leadership.
When discussing this role with your practicum mentor, share what you learned about this style of leadership. If you were able to participate in a meeting, did you see advantages to this type of leadership? If you were not able to participate in an actual meeting, can you see the value in using shared leadership in the organization?
Share what these advantages might be. Take some time to also share with the class how your MSN project is going and any success or challenges experienced during your practicum. Make sure to include an analysis of what went well this week, what do not go well, and any unexpected occurrences.

Collaboration Café:
I have been fortunate to experience how effective shared leadership can be and how empowering it can be for members of a team. My Clinical preceptor is a clinical nurse specialist assigned to the emergency department but is collaborating with other providers in different departments to work on some projects in the facility. I have gained a lot of experience in how to practice shared leadership in how she collaborates with other leaders; I have sat in on different types of meetings with deputies and unit managers where discussions and opinions were shared to make decisions.  There were other times when you could see leaders fighting for resources for their department, and due to constraints like budget, they had to compromise and collaborate with other departments for resources. I have attended morning rounds with my nurse manager, where I get to see how beds are allocated in the entire hospital, and everyone must brief the chief nursing officer, who then must brief the hospital commander on the status of our beds in the entire hospital. Each department must track the number of beds because it affects how patients move through the facility; for example, the surgery department cannot operate if there are no beds to put the surgical patients after their procedures.
As a nurse leader, it is essential to be able to participate in shared leadership because it can produce positive outcomes by encouraging a culture of inclusion and support by ensuring everyone’s voice is heard. It helps encourage members of the team to be more proactive, improves communication among the team, and makes the team more productive.
My MSN practicum project is moving along smoothly; so far, all the nursing staff in my department have taken the pre-assessment for my burnout intervention. They loved the 15-minute meditation class they received during the skills fair, and all of them downloaded the application to use during the week. I am collecting and calculating the data for the pre-assessments and look forward to obtaining the first group’s post-assessments next week.
