Abstract

The main objective of this study was to investigate leadership styles in health crisis management among healthcare personnel in governmental hospitals in Gaza strip. Methods: The researcher utilized a cross-sectional observational analytical design. The study sample consisted of 270 individuals from three major governmental facilities in Gaza: Al Shifa Medical Complex, Nasser Medical Complex (NMC), and Europian Gaza Hospital (EGH). The researcher utilized a modified questionnaire drawn from two questionnaires prepared and used in two prior investigations to collect data. A team of specialists verified the questionnaire, and a pilot trial with 30 participants yielded a Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.920.


Results: The study revealed that all transformational, transactional, and charismatic leadership styles are helpful during health crises in hospitals. Conclusion: Though no theory or publication can guarantee that one leadership style leads to effective CM and another does not, there are several key characteristics that can serve as a guide in choosing the most appropriate style, hence a diversity of leadership styles is advised.
