Sister
Carolina Agravante’s CASAGRA Transformative Leadership Theory focuses on the
Three-Fold Transformative Leadership Concept namely,
1) Servant-Leader
Spirituality, wherein a leader, through spiritual exercise, realizes that
his model in caring for individual is Jesus;
2) Self-Mastery,
which involves individual’s self-awareness through formal education in nursing,
a continuous education, seminars attended and his involvement in organizations;
and lastly,
3) Special
Expertise, which draws emphasis in the nurse faculty’s involvement in the
formation of his students.
Indeed, Sr. Carolina’s CASAGRA Transformative Leadership Theory is timely in
this ever fast-paced world. Nursing as a profession is inevitably changing and the
demand to be at par with technology made it more competitive. Nursing students
need nursing teachers to look up to. Embodied with these three concepts, it is
timely to put this theory into practice.
