This is a book I am using for a Health Systems Management course. The case studies in each chapter are very real and allow for good reinforcement of the knowledge presented in the chapters. The book is organized well and allows good flow through the material.
Practical Approaches to Leadership Theory November 5, 2000
22 out of 24 found this review helpful
I have reviewed many excellent texts on nursing leadership and management, but I have never found one that so clearly outlined the theory and then provided cutting edge practical tools for distinctive problems. I had utilized a more simplistic text for community college registered nurse students, but when I presented one of the practical tools described in this book to my students, they said now this is really worthwhile learning. They liked the decision making tool that I described to them. The book should be a must for the bachelor's prepared nurse. I personally feel managers can utilize this book to increase their leadership skills. I personally am buying my own copy for my current management job.
