Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 3, 4
Florence Nightingale is viewed as a leader because she had a vision for nurses in her century. She did perform management duties in the beginning of her career, but she also hired managers to get work done. Lillian D. Wald and Mary Brewster established the visiting nurse service in the United States. This action required leadership skills. Lillian D. Wald also demonstrated management skills when she went to tenements to clean and give care. She recruited and did most of the work herself.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
A formal leader has been given a position of power and has facility support for the role.
