Abstract

Background:Leadership development, career advancement, and collaboration among scholars are essential to nurturing nursing research excellence and sustainability. The Midwest Nursing Research Society (MNRS) has incorporated several strategies to advance nursing science and to increase the pool of future nurse leaders. In this article, we describe the process, activities, and outcomes of the Leadership Academy (LA), an innovative initiative from MNRS developed to identify, engage, and nurture future generations of leaders.Methods:For the LA 2022 to 2023 period, the MNRS leaders selected a cohort of 5 nurse scholars and engaged them in activities to develop, enhance, and advance their leadership skills. By following the LA purposes, the cohort participated in monthly meetings with MNRS leaders, received individual mentoring sessions, assessed strengths and areas for further development, attended seminars, participated in a book club, and implemented a cohort project that focused on the promotion and support of early career scholars.Results:Outcomes showed increased knowledge about organizational governance, direction, and resource development; leadership confidence culminating with leadership positions inside and outside MNRS; career development plans; engagement with board members, and enhanced networking. Moreover, the cohort members planned and executed a well-attended conference special session that engaged a large group of scholars to discuss challenges and opportunities for career development at the MNRS Annual Conference.Conclusion:The MNRS LA is a thriving organizational initiative that promotes engagement and leadership skills development thereby increasing the pool of candidates confidently prepared to lead the nursing profession.

培养下一代护士领导者：中西部护理研究学会领导力学院进程与成果报告

背景：领导力培养、职业发展和学者间的合作对于培养护理研究的卓越性和可持续性至关重要。美国中西部护理研究学会（MNRS）采取了多项战略来推动护理科学的发展，并增加未来护士领导人才的储备。在本文中，我们介绍了领导力学院（Leadership Academy，简称 LA）的过程、活动和成果，这是中西部护理研究学会的一项创新举措，旨在发现、吸引和培养未来一代的领导者。方法：在 2022 年至 2023 年的 LA 期间，中西部护理研究学会的领导者挑选了一批 5 名护士学者，让他们参与到培养、加强和提高领导技能的活动中。通过遵循 LA 的宗旨，团队成员参加了与 MNRS 领导人的月度会议，接受了个人指导课程，评估了优势和需要进一步发展的领域，参加了研讨会，参加了读书俱乐部，并实施了一个以促进和支持早期职业学者为重点的团队项目。结果：结果显示，团队成员增加了对组织治理、方向和资源开发的了解；增强了领导信心，最终在 MNRS 内外担任了领导职务；制定了职业发展计划；与董事会成员进行了接触，并加强了网络联系。此外，小组成员还策划并执行了一次参与度很高的会议特别会议，吸引了一大批学者在 MNRS 年会上讨论职业发展的挑战和机遇。结论：MNRS LA 是一项蓬勃发展的组织倡议，它促进了参与和领导技能的发展，从而增加了自信地准备领导护理专业的候选人储备。
