Professional Role Development

“Nursing research involves much planning and attention to details, yet novice and seasoned nurse researchers often overlook the day-to-day operations required to conduct research studies. Project management is a set of iterative steps that can facilitate the process of conducting nursing research” (Rew et al., 2020).

As you begin working on your nursing informatics project, consider how this project will plant the seed for your future work (in and out of an educational setting). How might what you do in this course lend itself to what you will need to do in nursing practice on a day-to-day basis? Why might it be important to consider this now versus later in your education or practice?

Throughout this course, you are tasked designing a nursing informatics project. This project is steeped in project management concepts to drive your work.

For this Discussion, you will explore why this approach might not only will assist you in this course, but how it might assist you in nursing practice beyond your studies.

Project Management in Advanced Nursing Practice

Project management is a vital competency for advanced nursing practice, especially when leading complex initiatives such as a DNP doctoral project. According to Sipes (2020), the role of the project manager in nursing is multifaceted, encompassing planning, organizing, leading, and controlling resources to meet specific goals within a defined timeline. For this discussion, I am focusing on the project manager role, which aligns closely with the leadership responsibilities required for guiding a DNP project from conception through completion.

The article by Rew et al. (2020) provides a practical example of project management in nursing research. The authors describe a team-based approach to developing a systematic review, highlighting structured planning, defined roles, and iterative feedback. One effective strategy they used was segmenting the work into manageable phases—literature search, data extraction, synthesis, and dissemination. Their use of timelines, regular team meetings, and continuous quality assurance helped ensure progress and accountability, all of which are applicable to DNP project management.

For my own DNP project, I plan to adopt a similar phase-based approach, beginning with a detailed project charter and timeline. Key project management techniques that I believe will guide me most effectively include:

1.
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) – This will help me deconstruct my project into actionable components such as literature review, stakeholder engagement, IRB approval, implementation, and evaluation.

2.
Gantt charts – Visual timelines will assist with tracking tasks, identifying dependencies, and managing deadlines.

3.
Stakeholder analysis and communication plans – These will ensure I engage my clinical site, mentors, and preceptors in a consistent and transparent manner throughout the project.

Moreover, the 
Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle will be crucial in evaluating interventions iteratively, especially if real-time adjustments are needed. This aligns with the emphasis on quality improvement in DNP practice (Sipes, 2020). Implementing these techniques not only supports efficient project execution but also builds leadership and organizational skills critical to advanced practice nursing.
