Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book is brilliant, relevant, and a must-have resource for all preceptors and those supporting the lifelong learning journey of preceptors. This edition provides updated strategies for all preceptors and the ability to develop meaningful action plans to enhance the learning journeys.” –Sylvain Trepanier DNP, RN, CENP, FAONL, FAAN SVP, Chief Nursing Officer Providence, Renton, Washington “In today’s turbulent healthcare environment, preceptors play a crucial role in the successful professional transition of nurses. The nurse tenure in acute care settings has dropped over the past years, and many of today’s preceptors are new to their roles. Precepting is both an art and a science. This new edition of Mastering Precepting provides an evidence-based road map for preceptor development and strategies to avoid preceptor burnout.” –Rose O. Sherman EdD, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN Professor Emeritus Florida Atlantic University Editor-in-Chief, Nurse Leader “Once we expected faculty to monitor students, for new graduates to ‘figure it out,’ and for a nurse with any experience to transition anywhere needed. Then, as we focused on safety and quality, we realized all those individuals needed support of some kind to acquire the new expected competencies of the role in that setting. Once again, that is what Dr. Ulrich and her colleagues have done in the third edition of Mastering Precepting, with just the right balance of theory and practicality to make this a most useful book.” –Patricia S. Yoder-Wise, EdD, RN, NEA-BC, ANEF, FAONL, FAAN Professor and Dean Emerita, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Co-Founder and Vice President, the Nurses Legacy Institute Editor-in-Chief, The Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing Preceptors have the power and opportunity to inspire nurses and other healthcare providers to achieve greatness. Effective precepting programs depend on two critical groups: those who organize and manage the programs and those who support, teach, and coach. Beth Ulrich and her team of expert contributing authors provide the knowledge, tools, skills, and wisdom both groups need for success. Written for staff nurses and other care providers, managers, and educators, this third edition of Mastering Precepting teaches preceptors both the science and art of precepting and empowers them to seek the support they need to be effective. For managers, it emphasizes the importance of providing preceptors with positive and supportive experiences. For educators, it provides the information and knowledge required to develop and improve preceptor programs.

Book Mastering the Art of Success

Download or read book Mastering the Art of Success written by Nick Nanton and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The starting point of all achievement is desire. Napoleon Hill Mastering a job means we are proficient at performing that particular task successfully. It is also useful to note here that the word "success" has different meanings to different people. Success can mean, among other things: fame, fortune, emotional or skillful achievement. Proceeding through our growth years to maturity, we spend time and effort accumulating knowledge and resources, assessing our strengths and limitations, and taking action based on what we have learned. As we grow, so does our appetite for adventure and success. So, fortified with our initial progress, we set out to test our strength against the world. For those who achieve mastery of one job, the taste of success and the confidence it generates often propels them to attempt to master other tasks. To accomplish a chosen undertaking is synonymous with success; however, learning to master more significant tasks is often our real challenge. That's where the Celebrity Experts(R) in this book come in. They have achieved mastery in their various fields and are willing to share their secrets and methods of mastery with you. An integral quality of successful people is their willingness to help others succeed. One of the finest secrets for Mastering the Art of Success can be found in the following quote: I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Thomas Edison
