I would argue that being a nurse puts us at an advantage in the business world. I tend to use the analogy of ‘the whole clinical picture’. As nurses, we have the ability to pause, take a few steps back, and look at people and even situations as not just a ‘patient with a room number’ or a ‘person with a diagnosis’. We see people from a holistic perspective which includes the mind, body, and spirit. I do not mean this as a put down to other business owners in any way, but most business owners are probably not trained to see people in that context. Being able to connect with people on a holistic level is an advantage As nurses in the business world, we will succeed!
As a Nurse Entrepreneur, one of the main issues that I see with other healthcare professionals who start their own business is the lack of business skills. We may know our skills, or the ins/ out of our product and service, but what we really lack in business is Sales and Marketing. Name one healthcare program that teaches nurses, therapist, and other healthcare professionals how to market their service or products?
Selling and marketing are skills we have to learn and develop in order for us to get from starting a business to growing and maintaining a flourishing business.
