Abstract
This document contains the results of a literature review of transformational and shared
leadership theories through the lens of a nursing leader in a perioperative setting, using theory
context and application. Transformational leadership is the preferred form of leadership for
nursing. The author selects and defends transformational leadership with strong emphasis on
shared leadership, as the best and most effective leadership style to use when enacting change in
a hostile nursing environment where there is overt resistance to change. Involving followers
and converting them into leaders of change is an effective and powerful way to evoke follower
support and sustainability of changes in nursing practice and adoption of best practices.
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 3
Transformational and Shared Leadership Theories: Comparison and Application During a
Surgical Department’s Cultural Change
The purpose of this document is to compare and contrast the leadership theories of
transformational leadership and shared leadership; and, the context is presented through the lens
and perspective of a nursing leader in a perioperative setting. The lens of the nursing leader
includes a brief introduction in to the American Nurses Credentialing Center and the magnet
model, which supports transformational leadership as their chosen and preferred nursing
leadership style. Main themes and highlights from a scholarly literature inquiry are presented,
for both leadership styles. Similarities and differences in transformational leadership and shared
leadership will be discussed. The writer will select and defend the theory most significant to my
personal practice—leading and navigating a group of novice surgical charge nurses through the
cultural change of a toxic work environment, where there is a long-standing culture of lateral
violence, low employee morale, and employee disengagement. Finally, lessons learned will be
summarized; and, gaps in research and future research needs will be outlined.
Magnet Hospitals
Margaret Sovie, a nursing pioneer, was a member of the American Academy of Nursing
Task Force, in 1981. The task force mission was to identify the qualities and common threads of
hospitals that shaped nursing excellence. Sovie is credited with creating the term ‘Magnet
Hospital’ to describe hospitals that attract and retain the best nurses. This term later evolved,
and was accepted by the American Nurses Credentialing Center as the Magnet Recognition
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 4
Program—a program that is still popular and in use today. During a nursing shortage in the
1980s, McClure et al. (1983), began two decades of research on the characteristics of magnet
hospitals, and the relationship to nurse and patient outcomes.
The Magnet model endorses transformational leadership, where leaders embody vision
and influence. Transformational leaders exhibit and model strong clinical and professional
practice, and they are proactive and inspiring in meeting challenges. Transformational
leadership “has been shown to be particularly effective in turbulent and uncertain
environments” (Messmer & Turkel, 2011, p. 239). A trusting work environment of magnet
hospitals was identified as a common thread among magnet hospitals. McClure found that
facilitation of trust by nursing leadership, and strong clinical competence among nurses, was
key in achieving a trusting work environment in nursing units.
Transformational Leadership
Leaders, practicing transformational leadership, excite and motivate their team through
charismatic influence, and by communicating a vision that inspires and connects to individual
values. The leader stimulates their followers to work towards the accomplishment of goals.
The followers accomplish their work, and will actually perform beyond what is necessary when
inspired by a transformational leader. Bacha and Walker (2013) suggest that there are four
dimensions of leader behavior with regard to transformational leadership theory. The four areas
involve ways in which the leader’s behavior causes the follower to pursue the mission, aligning
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 5
with the desires of the leader. According to Bacha and Walker, the transformational leader
exemplifies and role models the following four dimensions of behaviors to inspire followers:
Transformational Leadership:
Four Dimensions of Leader Behavior
Individualized consideration Degree to which the leaders attends to each follower’s needs
Intellectual stimulation Degree to which the leader challenges assumptions, takes risks and solicits followers’ ideas
Inspirational motivation Degree to which the leader articulates a vision that is appealing and inspiring to followers
Idealized influence Highest level of transformational leadership—behavior of leaders that results in there being role models for their followers.
Trust
Many organizations accomplish projects and daily work through teams. Therefore, it is
imperative that transformational leaders be able to influence and inspire groups of people as
well as individuals (Chen, Kirkman, Kanfer, Allen, & Rosen, 2007). In 2011, Lord and Dinh,
found that transformational leadership has the greatest influence over group motivation as
opposed to individual motivation. Schaubroeck et al. (2011) identified a link between team
perception of a transformational leader’s trustworthiness and team performance. Mayer et al.
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 6
(1995) wrote that the competency areas of benevolence, ability, and integrity enhance leader
trustworthiness.
Intragroup Trust. There is a lag in research examining the existence of trust between
team members—and the impact of trusting and distrusting relationships between team members
and the impact upon group productivity (Lau & Liden, 2008). As a nursing leader, this author
has personally observed obstacles in productivity when individual members of a charge nurse
team have had varying degrees of trust between members. The deficit or varying degrees of
trust between individual team members creates a dysfunctional and broken circle of trust among
the perioperative nursing leadership team. It is the author’s opinion that building trust within a
department begins with the leadership team, and that there is a trickle down effect with the staff
members.
Work Performance. When intragroup trust exists—trust among team members and trust
of the leader, work performance and job satisfaction shift in a positive direction. There is a
Leader

Integrity
Ability
(Mayer et al., 1995)
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 7
correlation between job performance and trust. Both the individual trust in their leader and
group trust, enhance individual and group job performance, respectively (Braun, Peus,
Weisweiler, & Frey, 2013). The team and front-line leaders are more apt to be inspired, and to
embrace the influence of the transformational leader with trusting relationships have been
established.
Competence. A component of building trust is the establishment of leadership
competence. Trust can be viewed as a two-way street. Leader trust in the abilities of employees
to perform their job depends upon belief that the individual has the competence and decision
making capabilities required to complete assigned work. Leader interactions with the employee
are to a great degree dictated by the employee’s degree of competence. On the flip-side,
employee perception of a leader’s overall competence is based upon the leader’s “ability,
benevolence, and expertise (Page, 2004, p. 117). Trust is in part, built upon the group or
individual employees’ perception of leader competence.
Fairness. Scholarly research on leadership focuses upon the behaviors and actions of
leaders. An important factor in transformational leadership behavior is the existence and
perception of leader fairness towards followers. Fairness is an essential element in having the
follower act upon the directive, influence, and desire of the leader. Bacha and Walker found a
correlation between follower perception of fairness of the leaders actions, and employee
engagement and satisfaction, confidence in the leader, and job performance. Followers respond
well to leaders who treat all individuals with respect and fairness. Overall performance is
improved, when followers believe that their leader respects their individual needs and opinion.
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 8
Engagement
Followers value clear, timely, and truthful communication, as well as the opportunity to be
involved in decision-making (Parry and Proctor-Thomson 2002; Bacha and Walker, 2013).
Transformational leaders show support and cooperation towards individuals and groups, both
privately and publicly, which helps to gain the support and engagement of followers. Another
way to gain engagement of followers is through intellectual stimulation—where the leader
inspires and encourages followers to examine current work methods. Transformational leaders
encourage innovation among followers—producing new ideas and fresh approaches.
Transformational leadership theory places high value upon integrity, ethical behavior, and
where leaders place others’ needs ahead of their own (Parry, Proctor-Thomson, & Parry, 2002).
Key to determination of leadership success is the degree in which change is completed and
follower needs and desires are fulfilled (Page, 2004).
Shared Leadership
Shared leadership consists of two or more members of a team participating in the
leadership of a group. Leaders efforts are typically focused on capitalizing productivity and
effectiveness of the team. Shared leadership this through participation of all members of the
team, and empowers the group in accomplishment of work, and decision-making. The skills
that the group leaders and members hold collectively would be difficult for a single leader to
match. Shared leadership holds that overall team effectiveness and performance may depend on
its ability to draw on the leadership skills of its members (Bergman, Rentsch, Small, Davenport,
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 9
& Bergman, 2012). Yukl (2010) classified shared leadership into wide classes of behavior:
task-oriented, relations-oriented, and change-oriented. A fourth class of spanning was recently
added. All are crucial in team leadership situations, whether the goal is oriented to task,
relations, change, or organizational context:
Initiating structure behaviors are task-oriented
Consideration behaviors are relations-oriented
Envisioning behaviors are oriented toward change
Spanning behaviors are operational within organizational context
Trust
Trust influences performance in shared leadership. Enhanced trust within the team
means better group performance (Drescher, Korsgaard, Welpe, Picot, & Wigand, 2014). A
certain degree of trust among team members is exhibited by their sheer agreement to take part in
shared leadership, which is the first step in establishing intragroup trust. Members render
themselves vulnerable by taking the risk of taking part in shared leadership and through the
acceptance of influence by other team members (Engel Small & Rentsch, 2010). Over time,
trust within the group, as well as individual roles will change with the desired team outcome
being communicating, influencing, making suggestions, and holding people accountable
(Drescher et al., 2014).
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 10
Enhanced Team Function. Intragroup conflict causes decreased productivity, difficulty in
reaching consensus, and laborious decision-making. Teams practicing shared leadership
experience less socio-emotional conflict; thereby increasing consensus building, intragroup
trust, team cohesion, and job satisfaction. Teams practicing shared leadership theory reach
consensus quicker than teams who do not share leadership. Team member performance and
satisfaction is higher, as more members have an opportunity to participate in leadership.
Accountability and commitment grow, with more positive team functioning and outcomes than
non-shared leadership models (Drescher, et als.).
Competence. Research supports the finding that perceptions within shared leadership
teams include a sense of shared respect for each other’s competence (Simons & Peterson, 2000).
A study by Bertman et al. in 2012 revealed the following survey responses from members of
shared leadership teams: “We absolutely respect each other’s competence,” and “We are all
certain that we can fully trust each other.” Sharing leadership functions accelerates trust
between team members, and trust is higher than in teams with no shared leadership (Drescher,
Korsgaard, Welpe, Picot, & Wigand, 2014).
Empowerment
Team empowerment is a motivational and inspirational concept. Group empowerment in
shared leadership elevates engagement of the team members, to complete tasks in meaningful
and constructive ways (Kirkman & Rosen, 1997). The team’s level of empowerment is
dependent upon the team’s maturity and development, and the empowerment level is constantly
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 11
evolving (cf. Marks, Mathieu, & Zaccaro, 2001). Attention must be given to the influence of
external leaders upon shared leadership, as they may inhibit the empowerment of the team. In
shared leadership, empowerment requires that all team members be willing to offer leadership,
rely on leadership by multiple team members, and to have a voice.
Common Threads and Contrasts
In contrasting transformational and shared leadership, it is important to note that shared
leadership is actually a component of transformational leadership. Trust is important in the
success of both transformational and shared leadership. Trust positively influences
transformational leaders’ ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups. In shared
leadership, trust influences effectiveness of the group in accomplishing shared goals and
objectives. In both types of leadership, trust between team members and the leader are
important in the success of leadership and team success. Without trust, neither style of
leadership would be successful in moving forward to achieve desired work.
Work performance and job satisfaction are influenced by trust and cohesion in both
leadership styles. Trust in the leader and group trust augment team inspiration and influence by
the transformational leader. Shared leadership teams who possess functional, trusting
relationships, are able participate in leadership and to achieve a higher degree of accountability
and commitment.
Competence is an essential element in building trust, and in achieving the capacity or
aptitude needed to fulfill work tasks. In transformational leadership, followers need to feel
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 12
confident in the leaders level of competence as a leader, with competence in their area of
expertise. In turn, leaders must be comfortable with the level of competence, both collectively
and individually, of shared leadership teams. In addition to trust, mutual respect between
members enhances work relationships and the achievement of work.
In both transformational and shared leadership, followers have the chance to be involved
in decision-making. Engaging the team, and empowering them gives followers an opportunity
to add value and to contribute input into how work is accomplished. Both theories involve the
engagement of followers. Transformational leaders inspire and motivate followers. In contrast,
shared leadership allows the leader to inspire and motivate through teams of followers, who
represent and influence the work group.
Preferred Leadership Style and Application
There is considerable change currently underway in healthcare organizations. Hospitals
and other healthcare organizations are challenged today to provide more patient care services
and improved patient outcomes, while utilizing fewer resources. To achieve this, healthcare
organizations are rapidly seeking innovative changes that will challenge the old ways of
accomplishing work tasks and patient care. The innovative process of assessment and process
improvement will include adopting best practices. Many procedures and practices were
established decades ago, without consideration of patient outcomes and quality indicators.
Healthcare in the United States will morph and change significantly over then next decade, as
reimbursement dollars shrink, and the number of baby boomers needing healthcare peeks.
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 13
In order to meet these challenges, nursing leaders must help nurses and other healthcare
practitioners embrace the need for change, and to adapt and incorporate best practices into their
patient care delivery. I believe that transformational leadership theory is the best choice in
applying theory into the practice of change management in healthcare. The nursing profession
in the United States has recognized transformational leadership as the leadership theory and
style of choice.
When tasked with changing a negative work culture, the author prefers transformational
leadership with an emphasis on shared leadership. Shared leadership is actually a component of
the transformational leadership model. Shared leadership is a valuable tool in transforming
healthcare, as this style involves and gains the buy-in of followers. By emphasizing the shared
leadership component, leaders enable followers to be inspired to act and to become leaders of
change (Bennis & Nanus, 1985). Members of shared leadership teams have the opportunity to
become role models for professional and organizational values (Kouzes & Posner 2003).
Transformational leaders persuade individuals to rise above their own biases and desires; and
multiple leaders within the shared leadership team can provide the same persuasion to their
peers (Hutchinson & Jackson, 2013).
When author is leading change within a hostile and toxic work environment, often fear
and negative push back exists. This resistance is generated by informal leaders of cliques who
actively lead and seek to protect the status quo. Values within a workplace create the culture or
work environment. Employee behavior is a primary influence on culture (Marinova, Dyne, &
Moon, 2015). When a new leader challenges status quo this can be perceived as a threat to the
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 14
informal leaders of a dysfunctional work group (Morrison & Phelps, 1999; Marinova et al.,
2015).
Nursing leaders have the role of motivator and generator of inspiration, while also having
accountability for patient care standards. Some decisions will be unpopular. Relationships with
followers can be built and maintained through fair and consistent leadership. Rolfe (2011)
recommends treating pessimists with respect and compassion, while moving forward with the
majority to accomplish traction with work and attainment of vision. “The naysayers can
stagnate without input into their future, or they can join forces, making the group even more
powerful as they move toward the vision” (Rolfe, 2011, p. 55). Morale in the work
environment can improve when there is no blame, and followers can express their
concerns and desires. Follower collaboration and involvement in implementing improvements
can increase morale. Transformational leadership and evidence-based management to improve
patient safety can be accomplished in ways that satisfy follower’s values (Page, 2004).
The writer believes that transformational leaders should emphasize and deploy shared
leadership when working as a change agent in a challenging environment—and where the
change is vital to obtain safe and optimal patient care. In complex teams, such as the charge
nurse team in the writer’s surgical department, it is difficult for one leader to implement all of
the necessary functions. By involving and including the charge nurse team in a shared
leadership model, the author will be able to successfully accomplish change, for a number of
reasons.
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 15
First, by using the shared leadership model, trust in the leader and ownership of the
initiative would be obtained from charge nurses and followers. The charge nurses possess
historical data relevant to the organization and the individuals within the department, making it
easier to maneuver the political landscape. Second, this would allow an opportunity for the
charge nurses to grow and develop—both individually and as a team. Possible improvements
include building a relationship of trust between the leader and the charge nurses, from charge
nurses to the leader, with improved teamwork and trust between charge nurses. The
relationship of trust between followers and the leader would be enhanced, as well as improve
the professional perception and respect of the charge nurses by staff (Carson, Tesluk, &
Marrone, 2007, p. 1217).
The author is developing the transformational empowerment model of leadership in
healthcare that visually expresses the desired changes and characteristics brought about by
transformational leadership with strong utilization of shared leadership and empowerment. At
the focal point of all actions and initiatives, is patient-focused care. The opposing force is lead
by dysfunctional or weak nursing leaders, where informal leaders and cliques manipulate and
manage the operations of the nursing unit. This group of opposition includes disengaged and
toxic employees, who focus upon their own individuals versus the needs of the patient. These
individuals cause loss to the organization in terms of lost revenue, waste, property damage,
horizontal violence, patient errors, safety violations, billing errors, and recruitment costs of
nurses related to high turnover in a toxic environment.

Conclusion
Endorsements for the transformational leadership style include the American Nurses
Credentialing Center and the magnet model, as well as the Registered Nurses Association of
Ontario’. In today’s environment of rapid change in healthcare delivery, well-skilled nursing
leaders are vital (MacPhee & Bouthillette, 2008). Transformational leadership and shared
leadership both involve teamwork and collaborative exploration and implement of strategies
that can address followers’ issues. Morale will increase, when followers feel empowered by
seeing their ideas transformed into reality.
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 17
While transformational leadership has been widely adopted in nursing, evidence of
effectiveness related to clinical outcomes and quality of working environment are lacking
(Hutchinson & Jackson, 2013). Attention and research is needed in order to gain understanding
of the follower’s role in the effectiveness of leaders. In the author’s opinion, this gap in
research and understanding is emphasized in the nursing sector, where ‘nurses eat their young’
(Hutchinson & Jackson, 2013). Nurses and informal leaders of cliques working on a nursing
unit will defend the status quo by safeguarding formal and informal organizational procedures;
and they perceive the leader’s change management as a lack of relational concern. The informal
nursing leaders’ motives are in conflict with the leader’s goals, and they will demonstrate their
loyalty and support of the group and personal objectives versus accepting the leader’s desired
changes (Marinova et al., 2015).
Today many organizations are adapting to change by increasing the use of team based
structures (Hoch, Pearce, & Welzel, 2010). Transformational leadership and evidence-based
management help nurses make practice changes related to patient safety (Page, 2004). A
patient-centered culture improves the quality of patient care as well as the nurses’ work
environment (Hutchinson & Jackson, 2013).
Future Research
A great deal of research exists on the topic of transformational leadership. However, a gap
exists in the study of transformational leadership and leader fairness to followers (Bacha &
Walker, 2013). Nursing teams in the surgical setting are very task oriented, and more research
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP 18
on efficacy of shared leadership on this specific group would be very enlightening (Künzle et
al., 2010). There has been little research on the foundations of shared leadership (Carson et al.,
2007). More research is needed to examine impact of team factors in shared leadership, such as
task complexity, team size, team maturity, demographic diversity, team member desire to lead,
and leadership self-efficacy (Bergman et al., 2012). Trust is a critical element in predicting
performance in both leadership styles, yet available scholarly research is limited. In the
expansive globalization of the economy, research to compare the impact of shared leadership on
teams in various cultural setting would be useful (Hoch et al., 2010).
