About the Creator of Nurse Boss, Dr. Jerome Dayao.
Welcome to Nurse Boss Academy! My name is Jerome, and I am a nurse, senior healthcare executive, leadership and career coach, author, and entrepreneur. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working in various roles—starting at the bedside and advancing to leadership positions in hospitals across the country.
I created Nurse Boss Academy after noticing a critical gap in nursing leadership: a centralized hub where nurse leaders can access the resources they need to excel, thrive, and become the best version of themselves. I am passionate about leadership development, and during my DNP program at UCLA, my scholarly project focused on leadership development. This is where this idea was born. I believe that through strategic systems and practical tools, nurses can elevate their leadership journeys, whether they're looking to excel in healthcare organizations or embark on entrepreneurial ventures.
Think of Nurse Boss Academy as your go-to leadership development hub, packed with resources I wish I'd had when I was starting. Whether you're striving for your next leadership role or ready to launch your own business, you'll find practical, actionable resources tailored specifically for nurse leaders. Together, with the right systems and support, there's no limit to what we can achieve in nursing leadership!
