Spross and Hanson [8] list some useful models of transformational leadership and change. Some of these well known models include: Values Centered Leadership Model by Secretan [12] ; Good to Great by Collins [13] ; and Cultural Transformation in Health Care by Kimball [14] . Since a NP as leader lays the groundwork for a successful NMC, one model of leadership that is appropriate to be practiced is The Fifth Discipline by Senge [15] . The relevant concept of this leadership model implies that an APN leader must commit to lifelong learning [15] . The five practices associated with leadership include: personal mastery in which the APN would continually redefine and clarify a personal vision; being aware of mental images that influence views of advanced practice nursing; developing a shared vision and sustaining the vision; suspending personal assumptions and listening to other’s viewpoints; and the fifth discipline allows the NP to see the whole picture rather than the isolated parts [15] . The model includes concepts that will allow an APN to become an effective team member, empower others and facilitate change to create effective learning opportunities [15] . An APN can use the concepts of the model to improve their own personal leadership goals [15] . The fifth discipline described by Senge allows the APN to view advanced practice within the overall context of healthcare and approach a healthcare team with a style that fosters cohesion and collaboration [15] .
