Abstract
This article is based on an invited presentation delivered in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Association of Leadership Science in Nursing. The article begins with framing the historical context of nursing administration/leadership. The look-back includes a glimpse at the evolution of the Council on Graduate Education for Administrative Nursing into the Association of Leadership Science in Nursing. Two present-day leadership issues are then considered-turbulence and interprofessional proficiency. Lastly, the concept of problematizing is proposed as a strategy for moving forward. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow though are not tidy packages with good boundaries. The chronology, therefore, is not always linear.
