Hello, your discussion post highlights the importance of leadership styles and their influence on nursing practice. One of the major points explored in your discussion post is the role that nurse leaders play towards inspiring the nursing staff under their leadership. Through the use of strategies such as negotiation, facilitation, accommodation and communication, nurse leaders are able to achieve cohesiveness in the unit (Al-Sawai, 2013). As part of your professional development, your discussion post highlights various options. I believe the most important thing is the passion that shows when you describe your rationale for these options. It is this passion that sets outs good nurses from great nurses.

Hello, your conspicuous joy in the path your career has taken is justified. Your discussion post highlights the importance of the baccalaureate nursing program from the perspective of the benefits you have enjoyed since starting the program. Your enthusiasm is almost infectious, especially when you recount the changes in thinking, mindset and the self realization and reflection that you have undergone since starting the program (Shaw & Degazon, 2008). I believe that with this eagerness to learn and the evident thirst for knowledge, your nursing career will reach new heights.

Hello, in the broad sense, your discussion post shows reflection, not only on past assignments and you take on the perspectives, but also on your moral status when faced with conflicting situations. I concur with you that it is imperative for nurses to stay informed on matters regarding ethical issues and human rights. This is important in order to inform actions when faced with relevant issues during nursing practice (Matthews, 2012). I also concur with you that such information is important to ensure fluidity in the delivery of service, especially when nurses are faced with new conditions, such as the Ebola outbreak.

Hello, in many words, your discussion post highlights the importance of communication in nursing practice, and the role that the baccalaureate program has played in enhancing your communication skills. I concur that it is not expected that communication lines will always remain open within an organization. However, it is important for nurse leaders to ensure that any issues stifling communication within an organization are eliminated (Grohar-Murray & Langan, 2011).
