Sumario:Increasingly, nurse executives are embracing evidence-based practice (EBP). Yet, it takes 17 years to move only 14% of research evidence into practice. Implementation science (IS) aims to reduce this gap through the study of factors that influence dissemination, adoption, implementation, and sustainability of evidence-based interventions.

This article introduces IS, leadership competencies essential for supporting implementation research and practice, and preparing an IS-ready workforce.
