Abstract
Over the last 2 years, nursing leaders have operated in a fluid and disruptive environment,
constantly adapting to changes in the workplace. The global pandemic challenged these
leaders on various fronts: workforce, technology, and regulatory, threatening the
status quo of traditional orderly change. Factors external to organizations and a
highly contagious disease were forcing rapid hourly and daily changes. Today, nursing
leader skills are also morphing, requiring a revisit of the competencies needed for
visionary leadership. Traditional models of leadership need to shift from transformational
to disruptive. This article reviews and offers suggestions for competencies needed
in the future by nurse leaders.
