How does a Transformational Leader work?
It is about leading with an integrity and authenticity that resonates with others, and inspires them to follow.
Not only does it inspire others to follow, but to become leaders themselves
This approach to leadership takes us from a constricting model of competition between individuals, teams or nations, to a connection with the whole of a
situation, and leadership for the good of all

influence safety when a willingness exists to:
Allocate appropriate resources (e.g., staff, equipment),
Analyze processes
Implement changes
Support non punitive error-reporting and
Promote evidence-based practice.

linked to improving safety
Hospitals should actively seek feedback from
employees to ensure they are effectively practicing the
TFL style
They must also recognize the need to follow a
systematic approach in order to achieve the desired
outcomes in the area of patient safety

Improving patient safety begins at the top of the
organization with a hospital CEO who possesses a
TFL style, and it empirically demonstrates that the
charismatic-inspirational leadership style is directly
related to a culture of safety within the hospital, which
is tied to the successful implementation of PSI, and
ultimately to improved PSO.
