We need nurses to accept the call to leadership to achieve Sigma’s mission of improving the health of all people. Nurses function as leaders daily by inspiring, educating, and advocating for patients, families, communities, student nurses, and colleagues. It is time for all of us to self-reflect on the contributions we are making to Sigma. What role are you playing to fulfill the mission of Sigma? Why not use the leadership skills that you already have or are developing to make a global impact by volunteering as a Sigma leader? While there is no blueprint for leadership in all situations, there are stepping stones to becoming an effective Sigma leader.
