Question

A hospital unit is preparing to implement a new care protocol that will significantly change daily workflows for nurses. The protocol has raised concerns among staff, who feel that their insights from working directly with patients have been overlooked in the decision-making process. Some nurses have expressed skepticism about whether the changes will improve patient care, while others are open to the idea but want to ensure the implementation process is feasible and aligns with their current workload. The nurse leader calls a team meeting to address these concerns. During the meeting, the leader encourages open dialogue, asks for feedback, and facilitates a discussion. Which leadership style is most effective for addressing the challenges described in this scenario? O Encouraging the team to share their perspectives and collaboratively adapt the protocol to better align with their practical experience and ideas. Establishing clear incentives and consequences to motivate the team to adopt the new protocol as efficiently as possible. O Allowing the team to independently discuss their concerns and reach a consensus without leader involvement, trusting their ability to manage the process. Emphasizing the benefits of the protocol and directing staff to follow the outlined changes as planned to ensure timely implementation.
