Transformational leadership

According to the Magnet standards of excellence, transformational leadership is of the essence in nursing excellence. As an advanced practice nurse, not only will you be expected to be a leader but a transformational one. Discuss what is transformational leadership, how is it different from other types of leadership, what will your role be in the being a transformational leader, and how do you implement this type of leadership. What are the barriers and challenges that you expect to encounter. How will you bolster your knowledge and abilities in this area? Please review leadership theory, research and current evidence in your discussion. Give examples to support your work. Explore the literature and provide appropriate links and references
