  I founded this full service consultation company in 1978, one of the first to specialize in strengthening the practice of professional nursing at the bedside in hospitals. The strategies we used to empower staff and develop leaders are now being used by my colleagues in a wide variety of health care settings and for all clinicians. This company continues to thrive, growing steadily for 45 years. I continue to write and speak nationally and internationally.

  I was the leader of an innovation to strengthen the role of the nurse at the bedside that resulted in the development of Primary Nursing a delivery system for nursing care that improves the professionalism of nursing. This was an extraordinary development that propelled the rest of my career.
