title: The new nursing leader for the New World Order of healthcare.
abstract: Kanter states that the leaders of the future must move from relying on the force of one's personality to the quality of one's mind. She calls for "cosmopolitan leaders" who are comfortable operating across boundaries, who are the integrators, the diplomats, the cross fertilizers, and the deep thinkers who "encourage others to open their minds and tap the power of partnering within organizations as well as across them." The leaders of the future will not be asking how they can build their career. Instead, they will be asking what needs to be done to make themselves indispensable for the future. Becoming change leaders, creating world class excellence, and facilitating the need for spiritual aliveness among the staff and spiritual meaning for the organization will create the new world order leader.
