Abstract
Background: Transformational leadership is one of the most utilized models of leadership across the disciplines. It can positively impact the leader-follower relationship, performance of the leader, and productivity of the organization.
Objective: The purpose of the project was to assess the impact of an educational session on the recognition and execution of transformational leadership characteristics for nurse leaders and nurse educators.
Methods: An interactive transformational leadership education session aimed to affect the recognition and execution of nurse leaders' and nurse educators' transformational leadership characteristics.
Results: A Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test yielded a statistically significant increase in idealized influence (behavior), and an increase in intellectual stimulation and inspirational motivation.
Conclusions: This project creates the infrastructure for future ongoing initiatives focusing on the beneficial impact of transformational leadership development for nurse leaders and educators.
Implications for nursing: A supportive environment for transformational leadership development may take the institution to the next level regarding engagement, productivity, and performance, all of which are vital to organizational success.
