    Abstract:
    Nurse educators are challenged to prepare students to become effective leaders in a time of chaos. The last two decades have heralded many changes that have an impact on health care delivery, including changes in health care financing, the information explosion, the recognition of quality chasms, and the composition of the workforce. Nurses continue to be at the forefront of health care delivery and they must orchestrate care for their patients in an increasingly complex health care system. Our goal is to provide nurse educators with strategies to help students blend leadership and management techniques to lead the new generation of knowledge workers. Educators have the opportunity and the challenge to empower their students to master an eclectic set of management and leadership tools, including the best from historical management strategies and embracing the latest theories of leadership. This article presents thoughts and ideas to ponder as well as strategies to consider and implement as we create the curriculum and the learning environment for our students and the future leaders of our profession.
