Dr. Brandy Haley has been selected for the Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI) Leadership Award for the Gamma XI chapter. Dr. Haley serves as the dean of the School of Nursing at the University of Arkansas at Monticello (UAM).

STTI is the international honor society of nurses and the second-largest nursing organization in the world. The STTI Leadership Award is given annually to a selected nurse leader who enhances the image of professional nursing and promotes the professional development of self and others as evidenced by maintaining competence in nursing, responding to challenges with innovative approaches and providing mentorship in nursing.

Dr. Haley began a career in nursing in 1996 as an LPN, and in 2017, she earned her doctoral degree. She focuses her nursing research on the development of empathy and is currently exploring attributes that contribute to the development of empathetic leadership in nursing.

She recently obtained her certification in the field of nursing education as a Certified Nurse Educator (CNE), exemplifying excellence, caring and a positive image of nursing within the field of nursing education.

“I’m humbled to be chosen for this leadership award,” Dr. Haley said. “I aspire to be a leader that serves and empowers others. My team of nursing faculty are the core of my leadership and teach me daily how vital caring, compassion and human dignity are in the lives of each other, our nursing students and our patients.”
