Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Quantum leaders must have excellent communication skills, encourage personal critiques, and challenge current ways of thinking and doing. A nurse who relinquishes power to a group to make decisions is using laissez-faire leadership. A nurse making decisions for coworkers without considering their feelings is an autocratic leader.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The four basic types of skills needed for nursing leadership are communication, problem solving, management, and self-evaluation. Technical skills are important to other nursing roles, but are not leadership skills.
