Transformational leadership and social identity as predictors of team climate, perceived quality of care, burnout and turnover intention among nurses. (Personnel Review . 2016 45(6)).

The purpose of this study is to examine the role of transformational leadership in developing social identity and its subsequent impact on team climate, intention to leave, burnout and quality of patient care among nurses. This study provides valuable insights into understanding the critical role of HRM practice and policy in healthcare environments. Findings from this study indicate that human resource managers can assist nurse unit managers to deliver their HRM roles effectively when adequate support and relevant HRM infrastructures are put in place. This research considers the role of first-line nurse managers in healthcare organisations. It provides evidence-based knowledge about the type of leadership style required to achieve desirable employee outcomes and the essential HRM opportunities to facilitate this.
