What Do Nurses Need to Practice Effectively in the Hospital Environment? An Integrative Review With Implications for Nurse Leaders.

When staffing legislation was introduced, New Jersey nurse leaders recognized from the research and their years of clinical leadership experience that the work environment is a multidimensional concept and that staffing is not the only variable related to nurse and patient outcomes. Thus, an understanding of what nurses need in their hospital environment to practice nursing effectively was sought. The aim of this study was to examine the evidence regarding clinical nurses' perception of what they need to practice nursing effectively in the acute care hospital environment. The following population, intervention, comparison, outcome question was used to search the literature databases PubMed, CINAHL, Johanna Briggs, and the Sigma Theta Tau Henderson Library: In the hospital environment what do nurses perceive as needed to practice nursing effectively? Specific search criteria and the Johns Hopkins nursing guidelines and tools were used to identify relative studies. The final review, which addressed what nurses in the hospital environment need to practice nursing effectively, included 25 articles: 20 were an evidence level III, and five were evidence level II. From this review, five key concepts were identified: Leadership, autonomy/decision making, respect/teamwork, resources/staffing, and organizational commitment to nursing. This integrative review, which explored nurses' perceptions of what is needed to provide effective quality care, identified that providing quality care is multifactorial in nature. Resources, including but not limited to staffing, and leadership were identified as important by nurses as a key factor in supporting quality care. Nurses must be provided with resources and infrastructure to do their jobs, in an environment supported by authentic transformational leadership.

Study of authentic-transformational leadership styles in information technology sector - a canonical correlational study

Leadership study has been a topic of great interest and debate in organisational psychology research for several years. Several leadership theories have been proposed and have evolved over the years. Each leadership trait has been found to have several beneficial outcomes at specific organisational levels. This article aims to empirically study two such successful leadership theories- transformational and authentic. Authentic leadership is a relatively new leadership trait and has been found to elicit positive effects on individual and team level outcomes. While transformational leadership has been analysed extensively over the decades and found to contribute towards organisational improvement at all levels. This article aims to understand if it is possible to combine these two leadership traits so as to maximise the potential success of an individual, team as well as organisation. Canonical correlation is applied to understand how conducive these traits are to each other and if it is possible to train an individual to possess a combination of these two leadership behaviours. The results of this study would be of enormous interest to organisations aiming to gain competitive advantage in terms of talented human resources.

Authentic transformational leadership and its role in driving strategic corporate social responsibility: a contextual framework

This paper addresses the role transformational leadership can play in effectively driving corporate social responsibility activities of an organisation. The paper starts with an overview of the evolution of the definition of corporate social responsibility (CSR), advocating for a definition that links firm profit directly with a stakeholder view of CSR. A contextual framework is presented that seeks to provide a practical link between firm strategic CSR practices and leadership style. The paper argues that authentic transformational leadership is the best mechanism to drive strategic CSR activities within the firm. An in depth analysis of the components of transformational leadership is undertaken, with a view towards how those components assist in driving strategic CSR.

Code red: Towards authentic transformational leadership of emergency management

In this 21st century of unprecedented global, national and regional threats and innovative technologies, this study underscores the unique authentic transformational leadership challenges posed in emergency management systems. These open complex systems adapt to a range of critical emergency events, including mass emergencies, disasters and catastrophes. This qualitative research study based on grounded theory examines the phenomenology of emergency management systems by deploying triangulation to isolate the particular theoretical underpinnings of authentic transformational leadership models relevant to this domain. Using a key informant approach and a semi-structured confidential questionnaire, the perspectives of 103 emergency, health care and technological leaders of diverse professional backgrounds on the challenges of emergency management systems are presented. The response rate was 83.5 percent from 81 organizations across Canada. This study underscores the need for authentic transformational leadership and identifies seven critical and specific leadership imperatives for this domain. The implications for hospital and health care administrators are also presented. This qualitative study of diverse emergency system leaders is original in that it has not hitherto been done across Canada nor internationally. This study underscores the relevance of leadership theory and principles in the extant literature, but extends this to highlight those that are critical and unique to leaders of emergency management systems. In so doing, calls on the need for authentic transformation leadership of an order and caliber yet to be fully potentiated to manage future emergency events in Canada.

Spiritual and ethical transformational leadership: Critical discourse analysis within a practical theology praxis

The objective of this article is to focus renewed attention on ethics in contemporary dialogue through value-based leadership. This is done with reference to the value of meaning in social research and critical discourse analysis within a framework of leadership discourse praxis. Discourse constructs, such as dominance and power, are analysed in the (re)production of oppression, injustice and inequality. The objective is to analyse the way in which human ideas and the actions of powerful and dominant leadership elites are influencing and dominating ethical and/or unethical public enactments. The hypothesis is that ethical discourse enactments (practices) could foster authentic ethical and transformational leadership.

The effect of authentic transformational leadership on follower and group ethics

We propose a theoretical model to examine how authentic transformational leadership influences follower individual and group ethical decision making. We investigate how follower moral identity and moral emotions mediate the effect of authentic transformational leadership on follower authentic moral action. Furthermore, we explore how authentic transformational leadership develops group ethical climate, which in turn contributes to enhancing group ethics and to developing follower moral identity and moral emotions. Future research and practical implications are discussed.

Introduction to special issue on defining and measuring character in leadership.

This article introduces the background and need for this special issue of the Consulting Psychology Journal: Practice and Research on “Defining and Measuring Character in Leadership.” The introduction reviews some of the history of the concept of character in leadership, presents the major themes of the special issue, and briefly describes the 6 papers related to 3 models of character in leadership (ethical/virtuous leadership, authentic transformational leadership, and worthy leadership) and the specific elements of integrity, ethics, virtues, and moral potency. The introduction notes that each article in the special issue indicates how character in leadership can be defined, operationalized, and assessed. The implications of each model for the practice of consulting psychology are discussed.

The ethics of authentic transformational leadership

In response to worries about the morality of transformational leadership, Bass and Steidlmeier [Leadersh. Q. 10 (1999) 181] distinguish between authentic transformational leadership and inauthentic or pseudo-transformational leadership. The present article analyzes the conception of authenticity at the core of this normative account of leadership. I argue that the distinction between authentic transformational leadership and pseudo-transformational leadership fails to ground a sufficient response to ethical concerns about transformational leadership. To the extent that this theory holds that altruism suffices for ethical success, it misses the fact that leaders sometimes behave immorally precisely because they are blinded by their own values. In the end, we can expect that this kind of blindness will come to bear importantly on the moral psychology of leadership and, in some cases, encourage transformational leaders to believe that they are justified in making exceptions of themselves on the grounds that their leadership behavior is authentic.

Ethics, character, and authentic transformational leadership behavior

The morality of transformational leadership has been sharply questioned, particularly by libertarians, “grass roots” theorists, and organizational development consultants. This paper argues that to be truly transformational, leadership must be grounded in moral foundations. The four components of authentic transformational leadership (idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration) are contrasted with their counterfeits in dissembling pseudo-transformational leadership on the basis of (1) the moral character of the leaders and their concerns for self and others; (2) the ethical values embedded in the leaders' vision, articulation, and program, which followers can embrace or reject; and (3) the morality of the processes of social ethical choices and action in which the leaders and followers engage and collectively pursue.The literature on transformational leadership is linked to the long-standing literature on virtue and moral character, as exemplified by Socratic and Confucian typologies. It is related as well to the major themes of the modern Western ethical agenda: liberty, utility, and distributive justice Deception, sophistry, and pretense are examined alongside issues of transcendence, agency, trust, striving for congruence in values, cooperative action, power, persuasion, and corporate governance to establish the strategic and moral foundations of authentic transformational leadership.

Factions and the Politics of Guanxi: Paradoxes in Chinese Administrative and Political Behaviour

Lowell Dittmer has provided a thoughtful and constructive review of various efforts to understand the workings of personal relationships in Chinese politics, and proposes an elegant analytical framework for future research. It is an important study above all because he seeks to bring order and analytical clarity to one of the most fundamental aspects of Chinese political behaviour. In the process he displays an impressive command of the details of elite relations during both the Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping eras. Yet by pushing nearly to the limits the potential for theoretical neatness, he also, I believe, reveals the limitations of generalized analysis of the subject and why there is need for greater contextual sensitivity of a more particularistic nature. The rules of personal relationships in Chinese politics, and especially the workings of guanxi, do not follow precise or constant formulations but are rather nuanced and subtle, for they accord to the particular situation. Dittmer does, nevertheless, provide a clearer overview of some fundamental features of Chinese public life which have been under? appreciated or misunderstood. Thus, while there may be some problems with his formulations, there are also pay-offs from the effort which may be more significant than the issues he addresses. Before discussing the conceptual problems I find in his formulations, let me first state that I greatly appreciate his acknowledgment of the merits of my theory that factional relations among cadres in the Mao era were very much driven by an anxious search for security in a danger-filled political environment. We now have extensive new documentation from the flood of
