More than Medicine
Professor Linda D. Oakley, PhD, RN, is taking a heart-health message to historically marginalized Black communities and nursing students. As the Louis J. and Phyllis Clark Jacobs Professor in Mental Health, Oakley is committed to using science to find health and well-being solutions to systemic hypertension present in Black communities.
Lead Through Influence
Like magnets, our relationships with one another have the power to attract and repel. That complex network of relationships makes up our organizations’ culture. Health care operations leaders must take care to build up their organization’s culture to harness the invisible, magnetic influences and manage that force to create a high-performing culture.
Lead With Intention
Three priorities every new nurse manager should establish when starting a new role as a leader in health care operations.
Lead Through Connection
The Badger Nurse Mentorship Program helps current students who wish to receive support from School of Nursing alumni as they transition from student nurses to professional nurses. Through community, support, camaraderie, and fellowship, Badger nurses are building connections, leading in the profession, and changing lives.
Finding Leadership on Our Paths to Nursing
One of the ways the School of Nursing cultivates leaders is by providing opportunities for students to develop and enhance their leadership skills through various student organizations, jobs, and research opportunities. Student ambassadors Danielle Harris and MJ Joseph share their personal experiences as student leaders.
