Do you work in nursing? Tell us about it.
| MARCH 15, 2023 • VOL. 21 ISSUE 11 | | | Hi John,
Are you a nurse or nurse manager? Share your perspective with us.
We’re partnering with The American Organization for Nursing Leadership (AONL) to study and address nursing turnover. Our early research shows there are hospitals and nurse managers with remarkably low nursing turnover despite unprecedented challenges. We want to know what these outliers are doing so that other leaders and teams can replicate their success.
Please take five minutes to complete this survey and help us identify the best practices for building cultures of connection in nursing.

| | How to Handle a Personal Judgment | | by Brittney Maxfield

| | My manger recently told me that another leader said this about me: “her nationality shows by her bluntness in meetings.” I was told this as feedback but wasn’t given any specific examples. While I am open to constructive feedback and want to improve, I’m very hurt by this comment. This is particularly hurtful because I work for an organization that prides itself on being diverse and inclusive. I also ask myself: What would the feedback be if I were of a different nationality? Or if I were male? Or what would I hear if I were a director or a VP rather than a manager? How do I respond to this feedback? Right now, I feel hurt. I welcome your insight.
Signed,
Feeling Judged

| | | | It’s always difficult to receive feedback—especially if the feedback feels biased and discriminatory. I can understand why you feel hurt and frustrated. While you point out that this feedback is vague, it’s also extremely specific. The critic disparages a part of your identity, implying there is something wrong with who you are. It is hurtful. It also sounds like you’re struggling to let go. | | |
