Abstract
Session presented on Saturday, November 7, 2015 and Sunday, November 8, 2015:
The purpose of this scholarly project was to explore the effectiveness of implementing a standardized leadership program on improving nurse manager competence and the impact on staff nurse satisfaction, nurse manager satisfaction and staff nurse turnover rates. The literature reveals preliminary evidence that suggests overall effectiveness of standardized leadership programs in acute care organizations, but more research is needed. A cross sectional descriptive design was applied, surveying a total of 35 nurse managers. Participants were asked to rate the importance of specific leadership competencies using a 5-point Likert scale via an anonymous Qualtrics survey link. Data was gathered and analyzed and was used to develop a leadership competency framework for the leadership development program. Five leadership modules were created and presented to nurse manager participants. In addition, retrospective secondary data from the organization's 2013 Culture of Safety survey was analyzed for retention and satisfaction opportunities.
