Increasing productivity by developing alliances.
Collaborative alliances among nurses may provide a feasible and satisfying opportunity to increase the productivity of nurses. Inherent in successful alliances are the development of trust, compatibility, commitment, and mutality of benefits. The development of collaborative relationships among clinical research nurses, a research methodologist, and a nurse educator resulted in several federally funded grants and publications. The alliances described here cross disciplines and institutions and demonstrate the enhanced productivity that can result from such efforts.
