Answer to Question 1

D
The number of nurses who will be at the age of retirement in the next 15 years accounts for 40 to 50 of the current workforce. By the year 2020 the nursing workforce will be 20 (approx-imately 400,000 nurses) below the required need (Buerhaus et al., 2000).

Answer to Question 2

B
The starfish analogy points to the connectivity that we have with one another and how we influ-ence and are influenced by others all the time. This affords many opportunities for leadership that are dependent not on formal titles but on opportunities to shape the work at hand.
