Florida International University Nursing Leadership and Management Discussion
You are a team leader with one licensed practical nurse/licensed vocational nurse (LPN/LVN) and one nursing assistant on your team. You also share the unit clerical person with two other team leaders and the charge nurse. You have found the LPN/LVN to be a seasoned team member and very reliable. The nursing assistant is young and very new and seems a bit disorganized but is a very willing team member. At various times, you will be directing these three individuals during your workday, that is, asking them to do things, supervising their work, and so on.
DQ: What leadership style (authoritative, democratic, or laissez-faire) should you use with each person or would it be the same with all three? Would you be justified in using only one leadership style? If an emergency occurred, would your leadership style change or remain the same?
