title: Nursing leadership for a new century.
abstract: To successfully function in the next century, a nurse will need to develop leadership characteristics. The needed characteristics include (1) changing view of clients, (2) managing the environment, (3) being a visionary, (4) utilizing sophisticated communication skills, and (5) using "new" resources. The author describes these characteristics and identifies strategies that can be used by a nurse to incorporate the characteristics into nursing practice.
