ABSTRACT
AIM:
To explore literature that supports an understanding of values-based leadership in nursing.BACKGROUND:
Understanding values-based leadership in nursing means understanding several leadership theories such as authentic, servant and congruent leadership. EVALUATION Electronic databases were systematically searched to locate studies with the terms values-based, authentic, servant and congruent leadership. The literature was assessed with the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tools and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and meta-analysis approach and a thematic analysis. KEY ISSUES Existing evidence focuses on specific perspectives within three dominant leadership approaches under the umbrella of values-based leadership authentic, servant and congruent leadership. Limited literature suggests that values-based leadership can support professional collaboration, enhanced trust and voice for nurses, support for staff well-being, empowerment, job satisfaction, patient-focused outcomes and quality care.CONCLUSIONS:
A dearth of empirical literature concerning values-based leadership and nursing exists. Evidence suggests that authentic, servant and congruent leadership correlate with values-based leadership theories and core nursing values. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT Nurse managers should recognize the potential benefits of a values-based leadership approach for staff well-being, enhanced professional collaboration and the nurses voice, improved insight into clinical leadership attributes and improvements in quality patient care.Palabras clave
