🚨 4 Ways to Identify and Develop Future Perioperative Nurse Leaders Leadership gaps in the OR don’t just impact staffing—they can affect morale, team trust, and patient safety. That’s why building a pipeline of confident, capable nurse leaders isn’t just a nice to have—it’s essential for the future of perioperative care. 🌱 Here’s a practical framework to get you started: 1️⃣ Identify Future Leaders 🔍 High-potential leaders aren’t limited to one role. Keep an eye out for OR and perianesthesia nurses, surgical assistants, and quality staff who lead by example, inspire others, and think ahead. 2️⃣ Create Individual Learning Plans 📝 Help each future leader grow with a tailored plan that reflects their strengths and goals—whether that’s teaching, managing, or leading quality initiatives. 3️⃣ Prioritize Mentorship 🤝 Mentorship builds confidence, not just competence. Regular check-ins, guidance, and honest conversations help new leaders navigate their path with support. 4️⃣ Set Clear Leadership Expectations 🎯 Define what leadership means at your facility. Communication, critical thinking, and even business acumen should be part of the picture—and taught if needed. 🏥 A surgical services team at Mayo Clinic in Rochester built this framework to intentionally grow the next generation of nurse leaders. 💬 “We recognized the need to prepare our workforce to lead into the future,” said Kayla Simiele, DNP, RN, NPD-BC. “It’s about creating opportunities to develop the skillsets our staff will need—not just today, but tomorrow.” 💡 How are you preparing the next generation of periop leaders?
