This assessment aims to evaluate your ability to apply leadership models in nursing practice for complex healthcare systems. As a nurse leader, you play a crucial role in an organization’s ability to change and adapt. Your capability to translate a leadership theory, specifically transformational leadership theory, into a culture of change is vital.

As a nurse leader, you have various strategies at your disposal to create a culture of change in your organization. In this assessment, you will first develop your own leadership plan and then apply it to a workplace issue.
