Item Restricted THE INFLUENCE OF LEADERSHIP STYLE ON INNOVATION: THE MEDIATING ROLE OF JOB SATISFACTION IN SAUDI HOSPITALS IN RIYADH(LINCOLN UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, 2024-08) Almughim, Tareq Mohamed; Abdulsamad, AkramThe study goal of this study is to examine the influence of direct empirical relationship between leadership styles, job satisfaction and innovation. In addition, this study examined the mediating role of job satisfaction as a mediator in the relationship between leadership styles dimensions (transformational leadership, transactional leadership, organizational commitment, laissez faire leadership) and innovation in Saudi healthcare. The PLS path coefficient showed four (4) formulated direct and indirect hypotheses had a significant effect on job satisfaction and innovation among employees of healthcare in the Saudi Arabia. The study establishes that job satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between leadership styles and innovation, with high leadership styles having a strong positive influence on innovation and job satisfaction in Saudi hospitals. Thus, leadership styles, such as transformational leadership, transactional leadership, organizational commitment, laissez faire leadership all contribute to job satisfaction and services and PIN in Saudi hospitals. Furthermore, the findings contribute to the ongoing discourse about the importance of job satisfaction by examining the distinctive mediating effect of leadership styles on innovation among employees of healthcare in Saudi Arabia. Additionally, the results of this study indicate that hospitals leaders, policymakers, and government organization officials must understand the reasons why employees of healthcare in Saudi Arabia have job dissatisfaction. Finally, the study gives insights into the state of leadership styles in Saudi hospitals and its impact on job satisfaction and innovation among Saudi healthcare and provides points of reference for academics, practitioners, and policymakers.10 0Item Restricted DEVELOPING A MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP APPROACH SUITABLE FOR THE META-MODERN WORLD(Leeds Beckett University, 2024-05) Alwuthaynani, Mohammed Saud; Cox, PeterThe aim of this research project was to improve the adequate leadership and management approach for the hotel sector in Saudi Arabia aligned with cultural transformation of Vision 2030 using Hofstede's Cultural Dimensions Theory.

Many studies have examined the implications of these leadership styles on nurses’ behaviour and experiences in various clinical settings. The relationship between these styles and nurse retention or turnover is complex because it depends on several factors including empowerment, fostering a positive work environment, effective communication, and continual support. Although current systematic reviews emphasise the effect of leadership styles on nurse competencies and patient outcomes, they do not explicitly reveal the influence of these styles on nurse retention and turnover. Aim: This study aims to determine the influence of nurse leadership styles on nurse retention and turnover. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using online databases such as CINAHL, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, ERIC, and EMBASE, spanning September 2013 to 2023. The research question was formulated using the PEO model (Population, Exposure, Outcome) to ensure clarity and relevance. Relevant studies were examined, with measures taken to avoid redundancy. Specific eligibility criteria were used for study selection. Results: Eight articles met the inclusion criteria. These qualitative studies were carried out across a variety of countries and settings, to investigate the impact of leadership approaches on nurse retention and turnover. The articles exhibited minimal bias as assessed by the CASP checklist. A thematic analysis highlighted the importance of certain leadership characteristics for nurse managers. These characteristics included support, adept communication, respect, a visionary perspective, and proactive initiative. Such leadership styles improved nurse retention by encouraging competency development, innovation, adaptive change, and cultivating a positive atmosphere. Conversely, poor leadership practices diminished nurse satisfaction and increased their intention to leave clinical roles. Notably, transformational leadership was viewed favourably. Conclusion: Healthcare nurses’ commitment, retention, and satisfaction are directly impacted by leadership styles. This review underlined how specific attributes and qualities of leaders can significantly improve nurse dedication and morale. The most effective leadership style in relation to retention is transformational leadership, which fosters an environment that values creativity, inclusivity, and teamwork. These can be combined with other effective leader attributes, such as ethical leadership and spiritual leadership, to increase nurse retention and drastically reduce turnover. These findings can help inform related policy, clinical practice, education, and practice development to improve nurse retention and reduce turnover.18 0
