McCallin, A. (2003). Interdisciplinary team leadership: A revisionist approach for an old problem? Journal of Nursing Management, 11(6), 364–370.
Abstract: In this paper the author argues that the term interdisciplinary team leadership should be embraced cautiously. Preliminary research suggests that interdisciplinary team leadership is a model of shared leadership that requires more development if it is to become the cornerstone of interdisciplinary team practice in a radically reforming health sector. Stewardship is proposed as a potential philosophy for interdisciplinary team leadership, and a new, shared leadership role of practice leader is suggested.

Wilson, M. (2001). Organisational psychopaths and our health culture. Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand, 7(3), 27–29.
Abstract: The author discusses recent research on organisational psychopaths, and suggests it offers an explanation for the state of the health system since managerialism was ushered in through health reforms. She identifies personality traits of organisational psychopaths and of aberrant self-promoters. The author gives her experience of changes to the structure of nursing at a North Island metropolitan public hospital over an 8-year period.

Abstract: Based on the author's thesis, this research project explored nurses' perceptions of clinical leadership in mental health nursing practice. From personal experience and discussion with colleagues the author argues that clinical leadership in terms of support and guidance for nurses is often minimal and that there is a relationship between qualities of clinical leadership and poor retention rates of mental health nurses.

Buisman, B. (2006). Nursing 2020: How will 'Magnet' hospitals fit in? Nursing Journal Northland Polytechnic, 10, 33–41.
Abstract: Nursing shortages, technology, advances in genetics and the knowledge explosion are trends that have an influence on the nursing profession in the future. This article will examine these trends and give an overview of what it may be like to nurse in an acute-care hospital in the year 2020. The impact of leadership, management and political influences will also be discussed. The American concept of 'Magnet' hospitals will be described as one possible solution to the issues that affect the nursing profession in New Zealand.
