Abstract
The Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International has long recognized and supported the importance of leadership and leadership development in the nursing profession. As the honor society works to improve the health of the world’s people through its global community of nurses, affirming the role of nurses as leaders and developing strategies for supporting the leadership development of nurses is imperative. In 2003, Sigma Theta Tau International President Daniel J. Pesut, PhD, APRN, BC, FAAN, invited the International Leadership Institute Advisory Council to develop a position statement on leadership. The Advisory Council acknowledges the contributions of researchers, writers and leaders themselves for creating a mosaic of material from which to draw for this paper. Our purpose is to provide a position statement on leadership that can support the mission and vision of the honor society, now and in the future.
