Applying Transformational Leadership in Nursing Practice

Abstract

The impact of nurse leadership on patient outcomes and work conditions has received a lot of attention in modern healthcare settings. The purpose of this systematic study is to examine the effects of different leadership philosophies, especially transformational leadership, on the dynamics of the nursing workforce and the standard of patient care. This abstract's opening paragraph explores the complex link between transformative leadership and how it affects the workplace for nurses. We explain how transformational leadership creates a supportive culture, improves cooperation, and creates a good work atmosphere that is favorable to providing high-quality patient care, drawing on research by Kazin Ystaas et al. (2023) and Cummings et al. (2018). Transformational leaders enable nurses to emphasize patient safety and professional growth by encouraging open communication, teamwork, and empowerment.

This abstract's second paragraph looks at the larger effects of leadership philosophies on nurse and patient outcomes. Combining knowledge from research by Laschinger et al. (2014) and Wong et al. (2013), we emphasize the vital part resonant leadership plays in lowering nursing burnout and minimizing workplace rudeness. In addition to promoting nurse empowerment, positive corporate cultures with resonant leadership behaviors also improve patient outcomes. This abstract also emphasizes the value of leadership development and training programs in promoting efficient leadership techniques in nursing settings. Healthcare businesses may foster an excellent culture that supports patient safety and staff well-being by highlighting the need of continuing education and support for nurse leaders.
