RESUMEN
For each hospital that has achieved Magnet designation as an organization of excellence, a unique story exists about its experience. Our story of excellence is founded in a long partnership between administration and union leadership spanning 2 decades. We recognize that excellence is not a steady state, rather a continued commitment to improved patient, staff, and organizational outcomes. This article provides a glimpse into one hospital's story-administration and union partnership in achieving and sustaining the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Magnet designation.

The shared governance literature contains numerous examples of how to design and implement nursing shared governance models. However, there is a major gap between design/implementation and a change in culture. A change in nursing culture will support viability of this governance model. The authors detail the steps taken by a shared governance transition team to help a large nursing organization make changes in governance process and perception as well as to incorporate a maintenance plan.
