Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Emotional intelligence is the ability of understanding one's own
and others' feelings, expressing one's emotions, using and managing them. Being a
good nurse manager is also about being a leader. And then comes the responsibility
of helping others to develop. To do that you need to be able to relate to and
understand the emotional needs of others. The critical components of emotional
intelligence are self-awareness, self-regulation, and control of others’ emotions
(Ramchunder & Martins, 2014). Aim: this study aimed to assess the mediating
role of nurse managers’ emotional intelligence on the relationship between self
efficacy and burnout. Design: correlation design was used. Setting: this study was
conducted at Aim Shams University Hospitals and Institute of Psychiatry.
Subjects: 97 nurse managers were included in this study. Tools of data collection:
Soci-dempgraphic questionnaire, Schutte emotional intelligence scale, self-efficacy
scale for nurse leaders and Maslach burnout inventory were used to collect data for
this study. Results: Two thirds of nurse managers had moderate level of emotional
intelligence; also, slightly less than half of them had moderate level of self efficacy
and half of them had moderate level of burnout regarding personnel achievement.
Conclusion: nurse managers’ emotional intelligence not shows any significant
mediation effect on self efficacy and burnout. Recommendations: providing
continuous educational programs that focus on challenging situation in leadership
to enhance nurse managers’ emotional intelligence and self efficacy.
Keywords: burnout, emotional intelligence, nurse manager & self efficacy.
