Unit Code: NUR644

Unit Name: Principles and Practice of Nursing Management

Description: This course is designed to provide students with contemporary management knowledge and its effectiveness essentially requires a balance between good leadership and good management. Both of these facets are required for competence in management. Effective leadership in current organizational environments is concerned with a leader being more generative or transformational rather than autocratic, laisser-faire, or even transactional. Competent managers exhibit the qualities of generative, transitional leaders and they also operate within a sound management framework that incorporates a number of different areas that will be explored.
