The advanced nurse practitioner. Struggling toward a conceptual framework.

For our committee, the exercise of exploring the role of the nurse practitioner (as well as the roles of our other advanced practice nurses) was a welcome intellectual task. It confirmed the commitment to our programs as well as giving us an intellectual base on which we could agree, creating a unity among the diversity in our many programs, each operating on what we term (using the language first applied in nursing by Eleanor Barba, RN, EdD) "boutique design," each operating rather independently in spite of some shared courses and modules. It was rewarding to find a commonality beneath our differences. We look forward to further revision of our work by the entire faculty.

Leadership: can it be holistic?

The article looks at new trends toward holistic leadership as opposed to older models focused on the tasks of managers. Transformational leadership and Heider's leadership by Tao are given as illustrations, as is the recent upsurge of interest in the spiritual aspect of care. It is noted that leadership is provided in many settings among persons with and without organizational managerial positions. The need for holistic leadership in a time of environmental flux and unpredictability is discussed.
