Internal leadership development is a pressing issue in nursing because of the powerful influence of unit-level leaders/managers on staff nurse retention, the excessive costs of replacing this level of leadership as well as the costs of replacing staff, and the difficulty of finding strong candidates for both staff and leadership positions.

Three courses, their content, and the experiential learning projects associated with didactic content are described.
