Abstract

The shortage of experienced nurses is a concern in health organizations. This study investigated the leadership styles of nurse managers’ impact on turnover intention among nurses in hospitals. A descriptive correlational research design was used. Samples of 250 nurses working in five hospitals were selected to complete self-administered questionnaire. Findings show that participatory and transformational leadership styles are predominantly practiced. Correlation analysis revealed that participative and transformational leadership styles decreases turnover intention while autocratic and laissez-faire leadership styles increases turnover intention. Therefore, leadership styles of nurse managers are determinants of nurses’ turnover intentions.
