Inspiring and Nurturing Human-Centered Leaders: The Vital Role of Mentorship.

Because health care is a relational profession, logic suggests the structures, processes, and outcomes of nursing leadership and mentoring should be strongly grounded in relational concepts. Human-Centered Leadership in Healthcare™ provides an evidence-based, contemporary structure to carry out the vital process of mentoring for future leaders to deliver on patient and team member outcomes. .

Human-centred leadership in health care: A contemporary nursing leadership theory generated via constructivist grounded theory.

Aim: To generate a unique and contemporary leadership theory reflecting the essence of nursing within a complex health care environment.

Background: As health care faces unprecedented change and increasing complexity, a nursing leadership theory embedded within complexity science is vital for teams to be innovative, nimble and focused on human-centred care.

Methods: Constructivist grounded theory framed exploration of human issues embedded in nursing leadership.

Human-Centered Leadership in Health Care: An Idea That's Time Has Come.

The Human-Centered Leadership model, which is relevant for leaders at all levels in a complex health care system, embraces change from the inside out. The Human-Centered Leader (HCL) is embedded in the organization, rather than positioned above it, and recognizes the expertise and value of those who serve at the point of care. The HCL starts with a focus on self-awareness, self-compassion, self-care, and mindfulness while focusing on others through demonstration of the characteristics of an Awakener, a Connector, and an Upholder.

N-15 NMR study of the immobilization of 2,4- and 2,6-dinitrotoluene in aerobic compost.

Large-scale aerobic windrow composting has been used to bioremediate washout lagoon soils contaminated with the explosives TNT (2,4,6-trinitrotoluene) and RDX (hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine) at several sites within the United States. We previously used 15N NMR to investigate the reduction and binding of T15NT in aerobic bench-scale reactors simulating the conditions of windrow composting. These studies have been extended to 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4DNT) and 2,6-dinitrotoluene (2,6DNT), which, as impurities in TNT, are usually presentwherever soils have been contaminated with TNT.
