And I could not stop thinking of Florence Nightingale - the great lady who is commonly regarded as the mother of modern nursing.
Another talent of Nightingale that may skip your eyes is her remarkable presentation skill.
In fact, the great nurse was also a pioneer in the graphical presentation of information and statistical illustrations; she was renowned for her ability to use visual impact to convey important message - so as to influence various policies on public health. A particular form of pie chart which she developed, now known as the polar area diagram, is also called the Nightingale rose diagram.
Nightingale was elected as a member of the Royal Statistical Society in 1859 - she was the first female member of that society in history.
PS. Is it the reason so many of our senior nursing officers love paper work and presentations ?
