Abstract:

Context: Leader-member exchange captures the impact of nurses’ perceptions of support from their supervisors’ high-quality relationships, which may promote extra-role behaviors, enabling increased job satisfaction and workplace empowerment and nurses` organizational citizenship behavior. Aim: Assess the perspective of leader-member exchange and its relation with workplace empowerment and organizational citizenship behavior among nurses. Methods: A descriptive correlational design was used to achieve the aim of the study. This study was conducted at Benha University Hospital in general medical and surgical units. A Convenient sample consisted of 190 nurses who were working in the study setting, as mentioned earlier. Three tools used to collect the data; Subordinate (LMX-MDM) survey portion, Condition of Work Effectiveness Questionnaire (CWEQ), and Organizational Citizenship Behavior Scale. Results: The findings of this study indicated that more than half of nurses (54.7%) reported that they had a high-quality relationship with their supervisors, and 71.1% of nurses had a moderate level of workplace empowerment. Also, more than half of nurses (51.1%) had a moderate level of organizational citizenship behavior. Conclusions: There was a highly statistically significant positive correlation between the total score of leader-member exchange and total workplace empowerment, total organizational citizenship behavior. Also was a highly statistically significant positive correlation between the total workplace empowerment, total organizational citizenship behavior. The study recommended that hospital management needs to focus on involving staff nurses in the political processes in an organization and keep them informed about significant changes in the organization and have a protective attitude toward it.
