When the friends you worked with won't take your direction

Last week we were just nurses together, complaining about the same things over coffee. This week I'm the charge nurse, and when I ask them to do something I can feel the resistance -- the little pause, the look. The friends I leaned on won't take direction from me now, and I don't know how to be their boss.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You became charge nurse and the friends you leaned on won't take your direction.
