abstract: Recognizing leadership styles and team-building interventions that work help nurse managers change skills and strategies to meet the demands of a workforce reorganization. Three key strategies are identified: emotional management, professional empowerment and empowerment by values. All members involved in the reorganization were given room to grow, to make mistakes and to learn from them.
