Power: a perspective for the nurse administrator. 1979

The nurse administrator is viewed as a manager within an organization. In this light, power becomes a critical component of the administrative position, and the hospital environment is shown to manifest traditional organizational power phenomena. The nature of power is explored and the skills and strategies necessary for the acquisition and use of power are outlined.
