Abstract

Effective quality leadership is identified as a critical factor for organisational success. Leadership style has an important role in the implementation of quality management. This systematic review describes the characteristics of leadership in quality management in healthcare, and analyses their association with successful or unsuccessful quality management by using content analysis. Papers published in peer-reviewed journals between 2011 and June 2023 were selected by exploring the Abi/Inform, Business Source Complete, Cinahl, Pubmed and Web of Science electronic databases. Altogether 3014 records were found. PRISMA-protocol was used for selection of studies. 12 original and three review articles were included. Six leadership characteristics were identified that were linked to successful or unsuccessful implementation of quality management. The six categories were strategic, knowledge-oriented, value-based, supportive, participatory and communicative leadership. Supercategories and subcategories of successful and unsuccessful implementation are described. The results can be used to identify the leadership characteristics that promote successful quality management in healthcare organisations. In education for leaders and managers, attention should be in the characteristics and style of leadership and their impact on the effectiveness of quality management.

期刊介绍： Health Services Management Research (HSMR) is an authoritative international peer-reviewed journal which publishes theoretically and empirically rigorous research on questions of enduring interest to health-care organizations and systems throughout the world. Examining the real issues confronting health services management, it provides an independent view and cutting edge evidence-based research to guide policy-making and management decision-making. HSMR aims to be a forum serving an international community of academics and researchers on the one hand and healthcare managers, executives, policymakers and clinicians and all health professionals on the other. HSMR wants to make a substantial contribution to both research and managerial practice, with particular emphasis placed on publishing studies which offer actionable findings and on promoting knowledge mobilisation toward theoretical advances.
