“…According to the National Health Board (2012) in New Zealand, clinical leadership is defined as revealing behaviours that will change the system for the benefit of patients, working with clinical and managerial leaders. In other words, clinical leadership is characterised by the ability to cope with changes and with directionality (Stanley, 2013). Pepin et al (2010: 269) defined this concept as 'a professional competency demonstrated in clinical care that galvanizes the nurse to influence others to continuously improve the care they provide'.…”

“…According to Stanley (2017), the main attributes of clinical leaders are approachability, empowerment and motivation, as well as being visible in practice, clinically competent and clinically knowledgeable, possessing the appropriate values and beliefs, along with effective communication skills and being someone who copes well with change, has integrity, is supportive, inspires confidence and is a positive clinical role model. That is why clinical leadership by staff nurses and physicians is necessary in medical practice, as it improves the efficiency and sustenance of care processes that utilise the healthcare team and delivery of ideal patient care (Chavez and Yoder, 2014).…”

Background: Clinical leadership is one of the important issues that should be carefully discussed with clinicians in the health sector. Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical leadership qualities of physicians and nurses and to examine effect variables such as age, gender, marital status, total working time, educational level, profession, working unit, formal education on management, leadership and clinical leadership on the subdimensions of clinical leadership. Methods: Participants included physicians and nurses working in a university hospital in Ankara, Turkey, and 261 participants responded to the research instrument. Data were collected from January to March 2016. Descriptive statistics, the significance test of difference between two means, and one-way analysis of variance were used in the data analysis. Results: The findings revealed that total working time in the health sector and in the current working unit affect all subdimensions of clinical leadership (p < 0.05). Whereas the subdimension of managing services has the highest mean score, the subdimension of personal qualities has the lowest mean score in clinical leadership. Conclusion: Clinicians must aspire to achieve professional and managerial levels, which can improve their clinical expertise and clinical leadership skills.

“…Clinical leadership is vital in nursing as nurses face complex challenges in clinical settings, especially in acute care settings 4. Although developed from the management domain, leadership and management are two concepts used interchangeably,5–9 leading to further misunderstanding of the relationship between clinical leadership and management. While different types of leadership have been evident in nursing and health industry literature, clinical leadership is still misunderstood in clinical environments 8.…”

“…However, effective clinical leadership involves individuals with the appropriate clinical leadership skills and attributes at different levels of an organisation, focusing on multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary work 10. The main skills associated with clinical leadership were having values and beliefs consistent with their actions and interventions, being supportive of colleagues, communicating effectively, serving as a role model and engaging in reflective practice 4–9. The main attributes associated with clinical leadership were using effective communication, clinical competence, being a role model, supportive and approachability 4–9.…”

BackgroundResearch shows a significant growth in clinical leadership from a nursing perspective; however, clinical leadership is still misunderstood in all clinical environments. Until now, clinical leaders were rarely seen in hospitals’ top management and leadership roles.PurposeThis study surveyed the attributes and skills of clinical nursing leadership and the actions that effective clinical nursing leaders can do.MethodsIn 2020, a cross-sectional design was used in the current study using an online survey, with a non-random purposive sample of 296 registered nurses from teaching, public and private hospitals and areas of work in Jordan, yielding a 66% response rate. Data were analysed using descriptive analysis of frequency and central tendency measures, and comparisons were performed using independent t-tests.ResultsThe sample consists mostly of junior nurses. The ‘most common’ attributes associated with clinical nursing leadership were effective communication, clinical competence, approachability, role model and support. The ‘least common’ attribute associated with clinical nursing leadership was ‘controlling’. The top-rated skills of clinical leaders were having a strong moral character, knowing right and wrong and acting appropriately. Leading change and service improvement were clinical leaders’ top-rated actions. An independent t-test on key variables revealed substantial differences between male and female nurses regarding the actions and skills of effective clinical nursing leadership.ConclusionsThe current study looked at clinical leadership in Jordan’s healthcare system, focusing on the role of gender in clinical nursing leadership. The findings advocate for clinical leadership by nurses as an essential element of value-based practice, and they influence innovation and change. As clinical leaders in various hospitals and healthcare settings, more empirical work is needed to build on clinical nursing in general and the attributes, skills and actions of clinical nursing leadership of nursing leaders and nurses.

Purpose This paper aims to explore what is known in the literature about leadership and burnout within mental health clinicians (MHC). Design/methodology/approach The Arksey and O’Malley (2005) framework was used to conduct a systematised scoping review of three databases: PsycInfo, PubMed and CINAHL. To ensure a broad scope of the literature, Google, Google Scholar and three sources of grey literature were also searched. Findings In total 1,087 articles were identified and 36 were included in the final review, 23 of which were cross-sectional and correlational studies. There is a lack of experimental studies, longitudinal research and qualitative approaches. The literature repeatedly demonstrated an association between leadership and burnout; transformational-leadership style, good quality supervision, supportive relationships, positive communication and fostering autonomy are areas of interest. Research limitations/implications Future research activity should aim to follow the recommendations made in the literature; more experimental and longitudinal approaches are needed to support practical application of the findings. Originality/value To the best of the author’s knowledge there is no other review which maps out the research pertaining to leadership and burnout among MHC. These findings can be used to guide future research to ensure that efforts are directed toward original, meaningful and practical ventures that will add to the evidence base and benefit clinical practice.
