" --from the foreword by Joanne Disch, PhD, RN, FAAN Professor and Lillehei Chair in Nursing Leadership and Director Katharine J. Densford International Center for Nursing Leadership, School of Nursing, University of Minnesota McBride's book on leadership, "The Growth and Development of Nurse Leaders," is especially timely given the generational gap between those nearing retiring in unprecedented numbers and individuals who are in the beginning and middle of their career. McBride addresses a number of important developmental issues for young men and women in nursing embarking on a career path in which their accomplishments earmark them for leadership. ---Nursing Outlook "The apparent simplicity of the ideas presented is a tribute to the author's grasp of the subject matter. In fact, this is a book that will be dog eared whether on the shelf of the beginner or the experienced leader. " Catherine L.

" Daniel J Pesut, PhD RN PMHCNS-BC FAAN Indiana University School of Nursing, Indianapolis "Whether you are an accomplished leader or somewhere along the path this book is a must read. Angela McBride has surely outdone herself in developing this inspirational piece...As someone new to leadership, the book offers a path that is not proscriptive, but rather guiding one toward self-awareness, understanding of others, and helpful strategies. For the mid-career leader, the book offers some comfort and reinforcement of direction. For someone who is seasoned, the insights remind one of the successes of the past and what is possible for the future." Harriet R.
