Abstract
Background: Humble leadership has a vital role in inspiring staff nurses to achieve their goals through influencing and leading them with humility and providing atmosphere that fosters their proactive and innovative work behaviors. Aim: Study the effect of humble leadership on staff nurses’ proactive and innovative work behaviors. Subjects and Method: Research design: A descriptive correlational research design was used. Setting: The study was conducted in Intensive Care Units at Tanta University Main Hospital. All (n = 565) staff nurses working in the Intensive Care Units. Tools: Three tools were utilized for data collection, Head Nurse’s Humble Leadership Behavior Questionnaire, Proactive Work Behavior Scale, and Innovative Work Behavior Scale. Results: At Tanta University Main Hospital, the majority of staff nurses perceived that their leaders had a moderately humble overall leadership level. Also, staff nurses perceived a moderate level of overall proactive and innovative work behaviors. Conclusions: There was a statistically significant positive correlation between total staff nurses’ proactive and innovative work behavior and their humble leadership. Recommendations: Nurse managers need to develop strategies to improve their staff nurses' innovative work behavior and learn how to work proactively with problem recognition.
