Project Management for Nurses with Kevin Pannell

Send us Fan MailToday's episode is all about project management. I'm sure many of you have heard of this topic, but what exactly is it? My guest today, Kevin Pannell, breaks it down for us.Kevin is a project management professional in addition to having over 25 years of experience in leadership roles, critical care, incident command, military service, homeland security, and information technology. By now, you may be wondering what the connection is between project management and nursing.Well, let's face it, nurses are planners. You plan your care before every shift and are constantly making changes to that plan during your care delivery. So knowing the principles of project management is a great tool to have in your toolbox. But are you also serving on a unit based council or a shared governance committee? Maybe you've volunteered to lead a team on a project. This can be scary because you can hope you know what to do and that it ends well but having actionable plans will ensure your success, and Kevin delivers these expertly.Kevin is also the host of the popular podcast Hope is NOT a Plan, and through it brings people hope by giving actionable planning steps. As he says after every episode, "Hope is NOT a plan, but a good plan WILL bring people hope."In the five-minute snippet: gone are the good old days. For Kevin's bio, visit my website (link below).
