Abstract
ABSTRACT Objectives: to assess nurses’ self-perception of coaching leadership in the hospital environment; to classify professional nursing practice environment; and to correlate nurses’ self-perception of coaching leadership and professional nursing practice environment. Method: a cross-sectional study, carried out in a private hospital, in the city of São Paulo, with 67 nurses, between August and December 2022, using the Nurse Self-Perception Questionnaire in Leadership Exercise (Questionário de Autopercepção do Enfermeiro no Exercício da Liderança) and the Brazilian version of the Practice Environment Scale. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, whereas, for correlations, Pearson’s correlation test, with effect size by Cohen’s classification, and sensitivity analysis of statistical power were used. The statistical significance adopted was 5% (p ≤ 0.05). Result: the results showed that 70.1% of participants were female and had completed their training in 10.7 years (SD=6.98). The mean self-perception of coaching leadership was 86.7 (SD=8.43), indicating a positive assessment. Regarding the work environment, four out of five subscales of the Practice Environment Scale obtained a mean above 2.5 points, classifying the hospital environment under analysis as favorable. Nine correlations of medium effect size were found between the domains of coaching leadership and professional nursing practice environment. Conclusion: coaching leadership was perceived positively by nurses; the professional practice environment in nursing was considered favorable; and important correlations were identified between the domains of coaching leadership and professional nursing environment.
