Leadership and Management in Complex Healthcare System

1. Identify a nurse executive (leader or manager) in a patient or population healthcare setting and schedule a time to interview this individual in person, or virtually using a free application like Skype or Zoom. 2. Review the literature and credible internet sources for information on the role and responsibilities of a nurse executive. Create a table of the top ten sources reviewed. Provide a summary description of the information from each source. 3. Use the information you gathered during your literature review to develop an interview guide. Your interview guide should include one ‘Grand Tour’ question and 10 additional questions related to the role and responsibilities of a nurse leader. Your ‘Grand Tour’ question should be open-ended and designed to set the tone for a conversational interview. Based on the nurse executive’s response to this question, your remaining questions may be different than those you planned to ask. Creating the guide is intended to prepare you for the interview; it should not be used during the interview as a Q&A list.
