title: Of mythspinners and mapmakers: 21st century managers.
abstract: The entire character of human experience is unfolding within an epochal change event as civilization shifts away from the Industrial Age. The U.S. healthcare system, rocked by the same dizzying rate of change, will play a pivotal role in the emergence of a new social contract. The coming transformation will require a revolutionary change in leadership style: the nursing manager really becomes a change agent--challenging, questioning the status-quo and creating an atmosphere where self-directed activities, workplace partnerships and shared clinical outcomes become the norm.
