importance to hospitals and health systems. Having a nurse manager who
had an understanding of their own leadership style is identified to have a
higher chance of being successful in handling their team and staff,
eventually achieving a better patient care (Cornell, 2020). According to
Cornell,2020 the success of the unit relies on the nursing leader strength and
capabilities, and nursing leaders should understand the different types of
leadership styles in nursing management. Once a nurse manager had an
understanding of the leadership styles in healthcare is recognized, nursing
leaders can take an assessment of how they choose into current styles, while
also evaluates which styles, they might use to be more successful in the
upcoming days.
