Abstract

In the 1800s, Florence Nightingale encouragingly suggested that one must never lose an opportunity to urge a practical beginning. Never knowing exactly which one and where, these small practical beginnings often lead to self-germinating and rooting, in a similar vein to that of a mustard seed. This article illuminates the unanticipated career influence of one nurse’s planted seeds and practical beginnings on her young, severely injured, patient. The article takes the reader on an unexpected, somewhat unconventional nurse leader journey, and provides enduring, replicable practice, and leadership lessons, learned along the way.
