Abstract

Globally, 2020 was celebrated as the Year of Nursing. The nursing profession is going through transformational changes in Pakistan, considering the diverse needs arising from the profession and the stakeholders. Nurse leaders are the key partners of the profession, and they must be aware of their vision statements and the ways to communicate with their stakeholders. Additionally, they should also be prepared to deal with the political, social, cultural and environmental challenges, which directly affects the profession through numerous routes while planning and executing their vision statements. This paper aims to discuss the vision development of the nursing profession in Pakistan. It further discusses the possible challenges one might foresee while spreading the vision and the means to disseminate the vision. Additionally, it analyzes the entire process of vision formulation from the perspective of a nursing leader by using Stephen Covey's book ''Seven Habits of Highly Effective People''.
