Özet:

 Objective: This study aims to determine the effects of nurses perceptions of organizational power distance on their leadership orientations. Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study comprised a sample of 126 nurses. Data for the research were collected between September and December 2022 using an introductory characteristics form, the Organizational Power Distance Scale, and the Leadership Orientation Scale. The data were examined using descriptive statistical methods, correlation, and regression analyses. Results: The average score of nurses on the Organizational Power Distance Scale was 2.440.04, and the average score on the Leadership Orientation Scale was 128.8912.96. There was a significant relationship between acceptance of power and transformational-political leadership r.148, justification of power and both human-oriented r-.167 and structure-oriented leadership r-.163, and acquiescence of power with structure-oriented leadership r-.152, transformational-political leadership r-.199, and the overall scale r-.167 p0.05. Regression analysis indicated that both acceptance of power ß1.22; p0.05 and acquiescence of power ß-1.51; p0.05 influenced transformational-political leadership. Conclusion: It was found that nurses have low perceptions of organizational power distance and high leadership orientations. This study elucidates how nurses perceptions of organizational power distance especially dimensions of acceptance of power, justification of power, and acquiescence of power relate to different leadership orientations. It provides a fresh perspective to the literature on understanding nursing leadership tendencies and how to support them. Additionally, the analysis indicates that nurses perceptions of power acceptance and power acquiescence may influence transformational-political leadership orientations.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmada, hemşirelerin örgütsel güç mesafesi algılarının liderlik yönelimleri üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel türdeki bu çalışmanın örneklemini 126 hemşire oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri, tanıtıcı özellikler formu, Örgütsel Güç Mesafesi Ölçeği ve Liderlik Yönelimleri Ölçeği kullanılarak Eylül-Aralık 2022 tarihleri aralığında toplanmıştır. Veriler tanımlayıcı istatistiksel yöntemler, korelasyon ile regresyon analizleri kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Hemşirelerin Örgütsel Güç Mesafesi Ölçeği toplam puan ortalaması 2.440.04 ve Liderlik Yönelimleri Ölçeği toplam puan ortalaması 128.8912.96 olarak saptanmıştır. Gücü kabullenme ile dönüşümsel-politik liderlik r.148; gücü meşrulaştırma ile insana yönelik r-.167 ve yapıya yönelik liderlik r-.163; güce razı olma ile yapıya yönelik liderlik r-.152, dönüşümsel-politik liderlik r-.199 ve toplam ölçek r-.167 arasında anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur p0.05. Yapılan regresyon analizinde gücü kabullenme ß1.22; p0.05 ve güce razı olmanın ß-1.51; p0.05 dönüşümsel-politik liderlik üzerinde etkili olduğu belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Hemşirelerin örgütsel güç mesafesi algılarının düşük; liderlik yönelimlerinin ise yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu çalışma hemşirelerin örgütsel güç mesafesi algılarının özellikle gücü kabullenme, gücü meşrulaştırma ve güce razı olma boyutları farklı liderlik yönelimleriyle nasıl ilişkili olduğunu ayrıntılı olarak ortaya koymaktadır. Bu durum hemşirelerin liderlik eğilimlerini anlama ve bu eğilimleri nasıl destekleyebileceğimiz konusunda literatüre yeni bir bakış açısı kazandırmaktadır. Ayrıca analiz sonucu, hemşirelerin gücün kabullenme ve güce razı olma algılarının dönüşümcü-politik liderlik yönelimlerini etkileyebileceğini göstermiştir.
