Leadership Vision in the Operating Room Nursing focuses on providing care to individuals and families within the healthcare sector to ensure that they attain and maintain good health (Kelly, 2011). At the operating room, nurses provide essential support services to doctors to ensure the best outcomes for the patients ((MacPhee, Skelton-gree, Bouthillette & Suryaprakash, 2012). Collaboration relates to working together as a team or ensuring important support systems for the best service delivery by nurses (Curtis, de Vries & Sheerin, 2011). Lateral violence is a major issue in nursing. It relates to acts of bullying of junior staff members by the seniors. The act often hinders service delivery (Edmonson, 2010). Significance of the Leadership Vision A leader can help in addressing lateral violence by establishing proper communication strategies, a process that should be done in collaboration with all nurses, so that both new and old nurses can know what is expected of them in their day-to-day communication with each other. Violence may also arise due to cultural diversity and lack of a specialization and system assimilation plan. Hence, a leader has the role of developing these plans as a way of guaranteeing a smooth and peaceful nurse-to-nurse interaction.

Factors that Influence Nursing Practice in the Operating Room This section focuses on how leadership can be applied to promote collaboration, reduce lateral violence, and/or ensure that nurses are viewed as an elaborate part of health care at the organizational and societal levels. The whole healthcare sector is undergoing changes due to demands for better health care services by patients and the changing nature and complexities of health care needs, which must be considered to influence the practice at all levels. Leadership plays an important role in ensuring that the healthcare sector can wade successfully through these enormous changes. Leadership in the operating room will help to address differences that are witnessed between senior and junior nurses. Lateral Violence Lateral violence is defined as any nurse-to-nurse violence, incivility, or disruptive behavior that leads to an unpleasant work environment, which affects patient safety and hence the reputation of the healthcare organizations. When nurses’ self-esteem is affected by such violence, the results can be devastating to the patients and hence the reason why lateral violence should be addressed. Forms of Lateral Violence According to DeMarco and Roberts (2003), the witnessed nurse-to-nurse violence may be manifested openly in the form of quarrelling, extortion, or yelling among others. However, other nurses choose to do the vice secretly, for instance, by assigning unfair tasks to other nurses whom one has conflicts with. A violent nurse can also decide to give counterfeit information concerning another colleague with the view that the colleague will be exposed to disciplinary measures
