Objective: To develop a new nursing practice model for use within the US military, researchers aimed to create evidence-based recommendations for nursing leadership development based on current literature.

Background: The role of nursing leadership has many implications, including better nurse and patient outcomes. Therefore, an actionable compilation of recommendations informing how to develop effective nurse leaders could be helpful for current and aspiring nurse leaders.

Methods: Researchers conducted a systematic literature review of 5 databases searching for relevant articles published from 2001 to 2020.

Results: Seventy-eight articles were synthesized to develop a list of 5 broad yet actionable recommendations for leadership development.

Conclusions: Leadership development is essential for current and future nurse leaders. The recommendations identified from this review can assist in developing leaders. Leaders can use these recommendations to guide leadership training initiatives, engage in self-development, or begin succession planning.
