Abstract
The role of the nurse manager is pivotal in creating a work environment in which nurse-physician collaboration is the expected norm. It is the nurse manager who clarifies the vision of collaboration, practices as a role model for collaboration, and inspires others to achieve this difficult goal. In addition, the nurse manager manipulates the environmental resources and facilitates self-confidence of staff. The management paradigm that unites the work environment with individual ability is most likely to facilitate collaborative practice.
