Imagination and Leading-Following: A Humanbecoming Perspective
Abstract
This paper explored imagination with leading-following processes. These processes were discussed in light of the humanbecoming paradigm's leading-following model. In the spirit of "creative conceptualizations," the humanbecoming paradigm, this author explored the ways in which imagination shapes the ways nursing and healthcare leaders' ideas and projects may move along in distinctive ways. Leaders guided by a nursing theoretical framework have a firm "place" to move projects and ideas forward that align with shared missions and visions. The utilization of imagination with a nursing framework moves the boundaries of ideas and projects to something new, marking unique cocreated contributions.
