Thank you for your hard work on the Introduction and Review of Literature sections of the Leadership paper. The Introduction section clearly identified an issue and explained how the issue influences healthcare delivery. The definition of the issue is indicated in the beginning of the ROL- see comments on paper regarding the location and citing.   The explanation for why nurse leaders should address this issue now is clear. The purpose statement is located at the very end of the Introduction section. The Review of Literature section identified your search strategy and was organized by theme. More depth/detail is needed for one of the themes – specifically including additional citation to further substantiate the impact of this issue- please see my feedback. Multiple APA errors noted on the reference list. Please remember that personal pronouns should not be used in scholarly papers. Please let me know if you have any questions about the feedback provided.

Nicely done!!! KUDOS!!!
