| Quantum Leadership—Unitary Principles The scholarship in QL has been underway fora couple of decades, offering anew level of unitary consciousness in nursing and healthcare leadership, education, and practices (Porter- O’Grady & Malloch, 2010, 2013, 2015, 2017). These unitary, quantum-converging themes can be found in QL science, in contrast to nonunitary Newtonian paradigm approaches. Porter- O’Grady and Malloch (2016) identified characteristics of QL. These characteristics are congruent with the unitary field of thinking and the second quantum revolution (Balents, 2016; www.physics.ucsb.edu/people/leon-balents) (see Table These characteristics reveal principles of both unitary and quantum emergence and convergence. These characteristics are indirect contrast to conventional parts-focused, healthcare leadership principles those embedded in the Newtonian physics worldview are more aligned with the particulate deterministic medical science worldview. As Porter-O’Grady and Malloch’s (2010, 2015, 2017) quantum scholarship evolved, they identified the different worldviews and how each level reflects different paradigms. For example, the Newtonian approaches reflect the particulate-deterministic paradigm their work then evolved from the transactional parts model (interactive paradigm) to the quantum level, consistent with a unitary CS worldview. Caring Science CS is an extant, evolved model of science, grounded in a moral-ethical ontological framework of relations and unity that promotes and sustains human dignity, caring-healing, and health for all (Watson, 1999, 2005, 2008, 2017). For more than 30 years, CS scholarship and the theory of transpersonal caring have sought to transform nursing from the inside out, by an expanded discipline-specific unitary worldview, acknowledging nursing’s covenantal relation with global humanity and transpersonal caring moments Watson, 2017). This CS theory seeks to sustain human car- ing-healing and love, through knowledgeable, compassionate service to humankind. The 10 Caritas Processes® (Watson, 2008) (see Table 3) of CS theory identify universals of human caring and love that guide the caring-healing practitioner-leadership principles for patients, nurses, and healthcare systems.
