Aim: To examine the impact of nurse leadership styles on the quality of work life (QWL) and efficiency in Shiraz University Hospitals. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 40 head nurses and 180 nurses from 20 inpatient wards were surveyed. Data were collected using Walton’s standard QWL questionnaire, the Hersey-Blanchard leadership style questionnaire, and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Results: Transformational leadership (45%) was the most common style and was associated with higher QWL and efficiency. Regression analysis showed that transformational leadership had a significant positive effect on QWL (B=0.45, p<0.001) and efficiency (B=0.38, p<0.001). Laissez-faire leadership was associated with lower QWL and efficiency scores. Path analysis confirmed the mediating role of QWL in the impact of transformational leadership on efficiency. ANOVA and post-hoc tests further validated that transformational leadership significantly outperforms all other styles regarding efficiency. Transactional leadership also showed a moderate positive effect on efficiency (p = 0.03), but its impact on QWL was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Transformational leadership improves QWL and efficiency in hospitals. Training in transformational leadership is recommended for head nurses to enhance staff well-being and operational performance. The limitations of the study include its cross-sectional design, reliance on self-reported data, and potential lack of generalizability beyond Shiraz University Hospitals. Further research is suggested to explore the long-term impacts of leadership styles and include patient outcomes and care quality metrics to provide a broader understanding of the leadership effectiveness in healthcare settings. | ||
