  • Title: The Nurse Manager Academy: an innovative approach to managerial competency development.
    Author: Maguire MP, Spencer KL, Sabatier KH.
    Journal: Nurs Leadersh Forum; 2004; 8(4):133-7. PubMed ID: 15495760.
    Abstract:
    The quality of nursing leadership has a powerful impact on nurse retention. Hospitals that employ effective nursing leaders report increased nursing satisfaction, increased group cohesiveness, decreased job stress, and decreased turnover (Wells, Roberts, & Medlin, 2002). The Institute for Johns Hopkins Nursing has developed a unique training program for nurse managers that employs a learner-centered approach and is designed to teach the leadership skills essential to successful nursing management. The Nurse Manager Academy prepares nurse managers to assume management roles with confidence and competence, making them more likely to succeed in one of the most challenging jobs in health care today.
