Transparency in Nursing Leadership

A Chosen Ethic

Constance L. Milton, RN; PhD

California Baptist University, constancemilton{at}yahoo.com

The concept of transparency has been viewed as an essential leadership attribute or element in healthcare organizational structures and processes. While viewed as something that is desired and valued, there is a lack of nursing disciplinary literature that defines the concept and its possible meanings. This column provides a beginning definition of transparency from the humanbecoming nursing theoretical perspective and launches a discussion with potential ethical implications for leadership in nursing practice and education.

Key Words: ethics • humanbecoming • leadership • nursing • transparency
