Nursing is filled with many innovative leaders who strive to work at the “cutting edge” of possibilities. This edge is tenuous and must be attended to with care through how nurse leaders and policymakers are present with people, situations, and ideas. Nurse leaders and policymakers must be guided by unique nursing theoretical perspectives as they are “present” with others navigating power and change. The purpose of this paper is to explore humanbecoming and the way it contributes to understanding power, health policy, and community change concepts.
