Despite what may be going on around us,
• professionalism,
• perspective, and
• perseverance
are key as we respond to the demands of modern-day nursing and represent a group of influential nurse leaders who are connected, empowered, and well-positioned to transform global healthcare and add value to the world.
Acting quickly, positively, and consistently in modeling professionalism, perspective, and perseverance represents a nursing profession and a Sigma organization in which leaders consistently act in ways that help team members to thrive, and team members consistently act in ways that help other team members to thrive. As a result, the organization can care very well for customers.
We know that recent and current disruptions to the world and to the nursing workforce, including COVID, systemic bias, burnout, violence against nurses, and staffing shortages will continue. We have yet to see what impacts artificial intelligence will have. As Sigma members we must respond to the demands of contemporary nursing practice with
• professionalism,
• perspective, and
• perseverance
with support from our Sigma community and the many resources available to us.
