The transformational leadership of critical care nurse-managers.
This study of transformational leadership found critical care nurse-managers to be highly transformational, using inspiration, motivation, and vision to empower staff, rather than intervening only when problems arise. Significant positive relationships were found between transformational leadership and previous leadership experience. The findings have implications for the recruitment, selection, and development of nursing leaders.
