- Title
Leadership for frontline veterinary nurses: the theory.
- Authors
Ballantyne, Helen
- Abstract
Increasingly, leadership is being acknowledged as a shared responsibility across a professional team, rather than being reserved for those in a position of authority. There is support for team members becoming leaders within their own areas of expertise with the aim of supporting the broader leadership of an organisation. This approach can be a valuable opportunity for veterinary nurses to learn and practise leadership skills. This article addresses some of the theoretical concepts of leadership and aims to explain why learning and practising leadership behaviours at all levels of veterinary nursing can benefit the individual, the veterinary team and ultimately the veterinary nursing profession.
