About
Bret Lyman is a nursing scholar whose work centers on disruptive innovation, health equity, and evidence-based leadership in healthcare. His most-cited paper, "Disruptive Innovation: Impact for Practice, Policy, and Academia" (2020, 11 citations), synthesizes insights from the 2019 Association for Leadership Science in Nursing International Conference, which he helped organize. The conference drew attendees from 30 U.S. states and four countries—Canada, Brazil, China, and the U.S.—underscoring the global relevance of his research. Lyman’s major contribution lies in framing disruptive innovation as a catalyst for nurse leaders to advocate for health equity and drive systemic change across practice, policy, and academia. By bridging theory with actionable strategies, he has influenced how nursing leadership adapts to transformative challenges in healthcare. His work is particularly impactful for students and researchers seeking to understand how innovation can address disparities and strengthen evidence-based decision-making. Lyman’s scholarship, though early in its citation trajectory, reflects a growing recognition of the need for bold, equity-focused leadership in nursing.
