Abstract

The healthcare sector is undergoing major changes driven by technological progress and evolving patient requirements, requiring nurses to adjust and take on leadership positions. This research investigates the leadership skills of 100 nursing staff members at Sulu Sanitarium and General Hospital, aged 23 to 55, irrespective of their nursing education. Participants consisted of male and female nurses working on a contractual or permanent basis. Data was gathered from different hospital sites, with average competency scores computed along with standard deviations to evaluate variability. Statistical methods, including T-tests and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), were utilized to examine variations in competencies according to demographics like gender, age, role, and tenure. Results show a well-represented sample across these demographics, demonstrating that although overall leadership skills are rated favorably, notable differences emerge depending on position and tenure. This indicates that nurses’ leadership abilities grow and improve through their professional experiences and positions, offering essential perspectives on the changing dynamics of nursing leadership in modern healthcare environments.
