Abstract
Transformational leadership skills are essential for safe healthcare practice. Assessment of healthcare students' degree of transformational leadership skills before graduation is important when developing future healthcare leaders. Therefore, optimization of focused educational activities helps students recognize their dispositions toward practical leadership attributes and behaviours before they graduate from a nursing or healthcare program. Researchers studied the degree of difference between students' perceived individual transformational leadership behaviours or traits before and after participating in a focused in-class group activity.
