Methods
A scoping review was conducted between January and September 2024 using databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria included English-language articles published between 2013 and 2023, with open access availability. After applying these parameters, 20 relevant articles were selected and analysed in tabular format.
Results: The review found that democratic, transformational, and transactional leadership styles have the most significant positive impact on hospital staff. A blended approach incorporating these styles was shown to enhance staff morale and engagement. Conclusion: No single leadership style emerged as universally ideal in healthcare.
Instead, a mixed leadership approach that integrates elements of democratic, transformational, and transactional styles appears to be most effective. Such a strategy promotes staff satisfaction and motivation, ultimately supporting the achievement of organizational goals.
