Abstract

The purpose of this project is to provide nursing leaders, who attend the American Nephrology Nurses' Association Leadership Pre-Conference Workshop, the rationale, tools, and outcomes of creating a theory based culture of caring in health care organizations. Utilizing the foundations of transformational and resonant leadership styles, a theory-guided approach to the caring science based in nursing practice will be explored and relevant research reviewed to elucidate to the participants the value added benefit of exploring one's own organizational culture of caring. The author's exploration of her own culture of caring will be shared to demonstrate the process and outcome.
