Evidence-based practice (EBP) has changed the healthcare in a positive way. It has been leading lots of changes in policies and procedures throughout the health care field. There is new research flowing continuously which helps in changing and amending the existing policies and procedures. Both internal and external evidences affect the practice. There are levels of evidence based on ranking and reliability, and are as follows:

Level I: Experimental study, RCT (randomized control trials), with or without meta-analysis. Example: Tuskegee syphilis experiment.

Level II: Quasi-experiment study, combination of RCTs and quasi-experimental studies (with or without meta-analysis). Example: New order-entry system in hospital and its effects before and after the intervention.

Level III: Non-experimental study: combination of RCTs, quasi-experiment, and non-experimental studies (with or without meta-analysis). Example: Research study on long-term ecstasy use.

Level IV: Opinions based on scientific evidence by reputed agencies. Example: consensus panels, clinical practice guidelines.

Level V: Non-research evidence and experiential evidence. Example: Case report, literature reviews.

Personal affiliations and networking opens limitless windows of opportunity for greater roles and positions of leadership in nursing practice. The referrals that nursing leaders get from trusted personnel’s and professionals as a result of networking remains significant in their application for other roles in leadership. The networks open opportunities that advance leadership skills among professional nurses, an aspect that builds their exposure through seminars and conferences thus equipping the care givers insights aimed at sharpening their leadership skills. The sources of motivation in professional practice through networking enables individuals to meet likeminded people having the same struggles and hold same ambitions, with this considered to advance professional practice (Al-Hamdan et al 2011). Networking is therefore essential in my career development as a nursing leader since it provides me with the opportunity of gaining access to new skills and knowledge in nursing practice, thus easily helping in the saving of time and energy. In other words, networking opens platforms for me that help in enhancing my career growth and development through the sharing of information, communication of significant issues, and the sharing of information of key issues within nursing practice and leadership.
