title: Developing the RCN Executive Nurse Network.
abstract: The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) has been reviewing how it engages with senior nurses across the UK. As part of a new approach to engagement, it was decided to establish a UK-wide network for nurses at executive level across all sectors of care provision. In this article, the author, who was appointed RCN Executive Nurse Network manager in November 2011, explains who the network is for, what it offers, how it will work and how it will be developed over the coming year.
