In leadership in nursing or any other position, the risk is a pervasive fact of life. Leaders are always in a place of significant risk since they are a constant attraction to many. They have a responsibility of translating potential into real experiences in a manner that their team members will see the benefits of the changes to their roles (Nurmaini, Wahidi, & Pamungkas, 2021). They have to make their team members believe that it can be done even when things seem not to be working for them all as a unit. Nurse leaders have to prove that it can be done.
Creativity and spiritual intelligence have a great impact on the role of a nurse leader. Nurse leaders have to be creative and innovative so that they can come up with better leadership styles that will cater to the needs of their colleagues and the patients that they offer healthcare services (Albert et al., 2020). Creativity is proven in scenarios of solving conflicts that can undermine service delivery, professionalism, and competency of other nurses. Creativity will help a nurse leader prove that there is no challenge that the team will face that exceeds their ability to overcome it and find a solution.
Spiritual intelligence for a nurse leader is instrumental in their leadership role. Nurse leaders encounter people, both colleagues and patients, with a diverse religious and spiritual backgrounds. In order to have a good rapport with everyone, a nurse leader must respect everyone despite of their religious or spiritual background (Sadiku & Musa, 2021). A nurse leader should be prayerful since prayer is a reflection of the reality that is beyond one’s own, and spirituality advocates for morality and good stewardship as a leader.
