Abstract

Background

The potential positive impact military nurse officers (MNOs) make on the nursing profession, as well as lessons learned, often is unknown beyond inner military circles.

Purpose

Describe the experiences of MNOs in the advancement of the profession of nursing and nursing education, and how military service influenced nurse leaders’ impact on civilian practice.

Method

A descriptive–interpretive qualitative study using semistructured interviews of MNOs (N = 21).

Findings

Analysis revealed three themes: Deliberately developing personal leadership capacity, Building bench strength through team investment, and Balancing people and systems to achieve the mission.

Discussion

Leader development in the military afforded participants the necessary skills to advance the profession of nursing and nursing education in multiple ways that span individual, group/team, and organizational impact. Transferability and application of these skills to civilian settings may enhance leader development in nurses without military service.
