Effect of caring leadership intervention program for first‐line nurse managers on their managerial actions and nurse outcomes

“…These results were in agreement with Egyptian studies and Jordan's study, which found that poor statistically significant difference in the pre-test while there was an improvement throughout the post-training phase (Elhanafy & El Hessewi, 2021;Khalil, 2017;Obeidat et al, 2018;Rashed, 2017). The current study was incongruent with the study of Chen & Liu (2019), which aimed to con- The present result was consistent with the study of Saleh et al (2015) and Wiley (2016) b Mann-Whitney test was significant at (α = .05).…”

“…Similar results were found in two Egyptian studies that reported that nurses needed to have a human and trustful relationship with their managers. Nurse managers should establish positive human relationships with their nursing staff through caring (AbouHashish & Khatab, 2018; Elhanafy & El Hessewi, 2021).…”

This was shown in this study as that there was a significant difference between the scores of the pre‐test and post‐test in the study group with respect to nurses' perceived FLNM caring behaviours and reached a satisfactory level.…”

The effect of talent management on the job satisfaction and organizational commitment of nurses

“…Ingram and Glod (2016) reported in their study conducted with health institutions in Poland that TM is not applied.

Another two studies found that nurses are satisfied with TM practices, and the hospital attracts, develops, motivates, and retains talented employees through the TM process (Ahmed et al., 2019; El Dahshan et al., 2018).…”

Perception of first line nursing managers’ about talent management

“…The talent management (TM) appears to be the primary responsibility that organizations are focusing on these days (Dalayga & Baskaran, 2019) [14] . Thus, TM is increasingly being covered in human resource management (HRM) as well as development (Elhanafy & El Hessewi, 2021) [18] . The importance of TM is growing in the healthcare industry, especially in the nursing field.…”
