Interview questions should focus on leadership style, development of the nursing leader, and current issues and trends facing nursing and healthcare at local, national, and global levels. Students will learn from the interview experience, so take the time to complete this portion of the assignment with enthusiasm. Ensure the individual being interviewed has enough responsibility to be able to respond to the following questions. You will use these headings to organize and present your findings. Introduction Describe your education, nursing background, and current and previous positions. Leadership Style Describe the leadership style you identify with and most commonly use in your practice. How did you develop your leadership style? How has your leadership style evolved with experience? Future Planning How are you working towards sustainability for your practice setting in developing new nursing leaders? To what professional organizations do you belong? How are professional organizations impactful in developing nursing leaders? Current Issues and Trends: Describe current challenges you are facing in nursing and healthcare (today and in the past 2-5 years.) How do these challenges impact your practice setting? Describe the impact of these challenges at the local, national, and global level.(For example, if staffing is a concern for the practice setting is it because of a local trend? Is this a tourist community in which the population fluctuates making finding and keeping qualified, dedicated staff a difficulty? Is this a challenge because this type of facility is impacted by local, national, or even global politics and economic circumstances?)Part II: Presentation of Findings You may present your findings as a paper, a PowerPoint presentation, or a video. Be creative! Be sure to include all of the content you covered during the interview in detail, as well as a conclusion.
