Introduction: For several decades, there have been repeated calls for nurses to become more involved in policy and political processes. Aims: The purpose of this article is to conduct an integrative review to identify and assess the current state of the science relating to supporting the pursuit of greater involvement by the nursing profession in policy and political processes. Design: Standard integrative review procedures were used to identify studies that examined how policy competence could be achieved. A comparative thematic approach to synthesis was used. Both published and grey literature written in English between January 1965 and January 2015 were identified via a structured search of CINAHL, SCOPUS, Science Direct and Google Scholar. Results: Forty-five primary studies were identified with literature from North America dominating, but contributions from low-and middle-income countries have recently started to feature. Studies tended to focus on the immediate impact of didactic and action learning-based approaches. The majority of articles were descriptive survey designs utilizing small convenience samples. Conclusions and policy implication: Many programmes of education have focused on developing an understanding of legislative policy and political processes, but the development of policy and political competencies at team and institutional levels has been ignored. Existing research have looked at the short-term effects of educational programmes. At this time, there are conflicting reports on the impact of variables such as gender and educational preparation on policy and political competence. There is an urgent need to address these major gaps if nurses at all levels are to play a full role in shaping policy and political process. IntroductionThere have been repeated calls over several decades for nurses to have a bigger role in influencing health and social policy. Authors have frequently acknowledged that, in general terms, nurses are inadequately prepared to operate in the policy arena (Adams et al. 2011;Antrobus & Brown 1997;Ferguson 1998 FundingThis research received no specific grant from any funding agency in the public, commercial or not-or-profit sectors. Conflict of interestNo conflict of interest has been declared by the authors. 135© 2016 International Council of Nurses Literature Review at both the knowledge required (content) and the processes that can be used to support the development of policy and political competence. While these articles are informative, they lack a comprehensive and systematic examination of the work published in relation to this important topic. AimThe purpose of this article is to conduct an integrative review to identify and assess the current state of the science relating to supporting the pursuit of greater involvement by the nursing profession in policy (at team/ institutional/organizational level) and political (public/legislative) processes. MethodTo achieve the aim of this study, the authors conducted a structured examination of the published and grey li...

“…Empirical research has found that managers use politics for constructive organizational and social purposes (e.g., Perrewé et al 2007;Buchanan 2008;Primomo and Björling 2013), including creating and discerning public value (Hartley et al 2015). Public managers often have to cross the line so that the politics/administration dichotomy is not a line but a zone in some contexts (Svara 2001;Alford et al 2017).…”

“…Public managers often have to cross the line so that the politics/administration dichotomy is not a line but a zone in some contexts (Svara 2001;Alford et al 2017). Public managers say they are more effective in working with elected/appointed politicians when they are politically astute (e.g., Svara 2001;Manzie and Hartley 2013;Primomo and Björling 2013;Alford et al 2017).…”

Leadership for public value: Political astuteness as a conceptual link

Both leadership and public value are increasingly seen as concepts highly relevant to public administration, not only because of complex societal challenges but also as ways to address pluralistic interests in society. This article explores in detail the varied conceptualizations of public value and of public leadership. Furthermore, we argue that political astuteness provides an important conceptual linkage between leadership and public value, enabling actors to read, understand and foster coalitions around diverse and sometimes competing interests. In this introduction to the symposium, we analyse the different conceptualizations of public value, of leadership, and also show how the six articles explicitly or implicitly draw on the linking concept of political astuteness. The article assesses how the six articles of the symposium contribute to each of these three concepts.

“…[8][9][10] In addition, the legislative fellowship provides students exposure to a broad array of state officials, policy makers, district constituents, lobbyists, advocacy groups, and leaders of professional organizations. [11][12][13][14][15] There are several foundational aspects of legislative fellowships that faculty should be aware of to create successful fellowships. Key to creation of such fellowships is that nursing faculty must first identify legislators who are willing to sponsor fellowships.…”

Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students need to be effective health policy leaders and contribute their expertise to legislative discussions. Nursing faculty have unique opportunities to prepare future DNP health policy leaders through legislative experiential learning opportunities. Yet, the creation of legislative fellowships can seem challenging. This article describes a state legislative fellowship based on Kolb's experiential learning theory and explores ways faculty can support DNP student preparation.
