  • Title: Nurse managers at the broker's table: the nurse executive's role.
    Author: Johnson JA, Bergmann CL.
    Journal: J Nurs Adm; 1988 Jun; 18(6):18-21. PubMed ID: 3373326.
    Abstract:
    The article uses the symbol of the broker's table to represent full participation in organizational decisions. Nursing needs active involvement in the organizational decision-making process to attain its goals in care provision and maintenance of professional standards. The theme of this article is to encourage nurse executives to develop the brokering skills of their managers. Developing brokering skills rests upon managers' acquisition of power equity, political savy, and knowledge of the organization's culture. These resources combine to empower one for success at the broker's table.
