Of This Change?
a. Exploring The Values And Feelings Of The Rn Group In Relationship To This Change
b. Leaving The Rns Alone For A Time So They Can Think About The Change
Before It Is Implemented
c. Dropping The Idea And Trying For The Change In A Year Or So When
Some Of The Present Rns Have Retired
d. Hiring The Assistants And Allowing The Rns To See What Good Additions They Are
Answer: A
Influencing Others Requires Emotional Intelligence In Domains Such As Empathy, Handling
Relationships, Deepening Self-Awareness In Self And Others, Motivating Others, And
Managing Emotions. Motivating Others Recognizes That Values Are Powerful Forces That
Influence Acceptance Of Change. Leaving The Rns Alone For A Period Of Time Before
Implementation Does Not Provide Opportunity To Explore Different Perspectives And
Values. Avoiding Discussion Until The Team Changes May Not Promote Adoption Of The
Change Until There Is Opportunity To Explore Perspectives And Values Related To The
Change. Hiring Of The Assistants Demonstrates Lack Of Empathy For The Perspectives Of
The Rn Staff.
