Background: The leader-follower (L-F) relationship in the nursing sector is an important aspect in the delivery of healthcare.While studies that primarily focus on the nurse leader have yielded very important contributions, it is also necessary to look at how the followers see their relationship with the leader, in the context of the practices and culture of their environment. Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors that affect the quality of nurse leader-follower relationships and propose a model for fostering high-quality L-F relationships among nurses. Design and method: The study utilized a descriptive qualitative design using a deductive, semantic thematic analytical approach. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted among 11 staff nurses from different tertiary hospitals in Metro Manila. Data analysis and interpretation were performed using Braun, Clarke and Hayfield's thematic analysis. Results: Analysis showed that 19 factors, which influence the quality of leader-follower relationships among nurses, can be categorized into context factors, follower characteristics, and leadership characteristics. These factors gave rise to a model for highquality nurse leader-follower relationships. At the core of the model is the leader and followers, who both possess characteristics perceived to be the main factors in building high-quality relationships. The relationship takes place in the context of professional nursing practice, organizational context and work unit context. These three spheres of context are specific to nursing services in hospitals. Conclusion The model highlights the characteristics of leaders and followers needed in high-quality nurse leader-follower relationships and the context in which they operate. It could be useful in guiding the staff development programs for nurses, as well as, improvements in the work environment.
Leadership

BACKGROUND: There is considerable evidence that leadership influences workplace safety, but less is known about the relative importance of different leadership styles for safety. In addition, a leadership style characterized by an emphasis and a focus on promoting safety has rarely been investigated alongside other more general leadership styles. METHODS: Data were collected through a survey to which 269 employees in a paper mill company responded. A regression analysis was conducted to examine the relative roles of transformational, transactional (management-by-exception active; MBEA), and safety-specific leadership for different safety behavioral outcomes (compliance behavior and safety initiative behaviors) and for minor and major injuries. RESULTS: A safety-specific leadership contributed the most to the enhanced safety of the three different kinds of leadership. Transformational leadership did not contribute to any safety outcome over and above that of a safety-specific leadership, whereas a transactional leadership (MBEA) was associated with negative safety outcomes (fewer safety initiatives and increased minor injuries). CONCLUSION: The most important thing for leaders aiming at improving workplace safety is to continuously emphasize safety, both in their communication and by acting as role models. This highlights the importance for leadership training programs aiming to improve safety to actually focus on safety-promoting communication and behaviors rather than general leadership. Furthermore, an overly monitoring and controlling leadership style can be detrimental to attempts at achieving improved workplace safety.
