Abstract
In the dynamic and complex landscape of health care, rekindling innovation requires a blend of courage, connection, and joy. This article, drawing from an interview with Dr Marilyn Chow, a recognized "Living Legend" by the American Academy of Nursing (AAN), outlines a transformative approach for nurse leaders. Marilyn emphasizes the significance of listening to staff, patients, and communities, taking appreciative and incremental steps toward innovation, and fostering an environment where risks are encouraged and voices are amplified. Through her narrative, we explore how nurse leaders can inspire their teams, lead with joy, and drive impactful change, offering a blueprint for leading with intention and creating a legacy of innovation and care.
