3-12. SUMMARY

In the role of enlisted leader, the M6 practical nurse manager must remember that he is responsible for the development of subordinate personnel. Therefore, when teaching, strive to teach excellence. When leading, lead by example. Only by demonstrating personal and professional excellence can the practical nurse manager motivate subordinates to develop competence, commitment, and integrity. The practical nurse must demonstrate both candor and tact when dealing with people. The practical nurse must be

 

decisive, having the knowledge, initiative, and self-confidence to perform in a professional manner. The practical nurse must maintain enthusiasm and humor in the face of even the most unpleasant or demoralizing situations. By maintaining professional bearing and demonstrating these qualities, the practical nurse manager will influence other soldiers to do the same.
