Crisis Leadership - Call for Papers

The emergence of a pandemic has called upon leaders world-wide to launch a rapid response to an unprecedented challenge. Responses to the novel coronavirus have been largely harmonized and responsible across the globe with few exceptions. In Canada, nationally and provincially, our political and public health leaders have demonstrated outstanding and sustained stamina, direction, support, and communications. But even more courageous and committed, our nursing community has stood directly in the line of fire of an invisible and poorly understood assailant. Never in our collective lifetime have nurse leaders at every level in every setting been called upon to confront and manage such a difficult situation, personally and professionally. It is timely to share lessons for leaders so as not to forget, so as to be optimally prepared for the next time. Download the full call for submissions here
