Accepting an invitation to speak at a regional professional meeting would be considered challenging for a nurse who has been in his or her role for less than 1 year, as it requires public speaking and presenting knowledge and expertise to other professionals. A highly complicated technical skill or modifying a plan of care for a familiar patient may still be challenging, but may be more within the nurse's current skill set and level of experience. Responding to a satisfaction survey does not necessarily involve challenging oneself in terms of knowledge or skill.
