Leadership is a technique, which is practiced by the management for the attainment of
goals or objectives. Through this procedure, the leader induces employees to strive hard for the
achievement of organizational goals. It is a science as well as an art, as with through this
technique and motivational process, managers motivate and inspire workforce so that they work
with passion and fulfill their responsibilities on time ( Cope & Murray, 2017). This technique is
not only vital for the effective chain of command but also for the profitability of the organization
as it consistently directs the energies and brings productive organizational changes. However,
this technique is full of culture and complexities as the mangers perform leadership style, which
is influenced by various factors like skills, experiences, ethics, and teamwork (Meliniotis, 2015).
In the health care sectors, the safety of the patients is the priority of the medical
professionals and staff. According to the IOM (Institute of Medicine), patients' safety means
revamping the probability of risk which is hazardous to the health of the patients. In the
provision of care, the emphasis was laid on the avoidance of errors, learning from the re-
occurring events and developing a safe working environment (World Health Organization ,
Patient safety, 2019). All these objectives can be achieved through effective leadership (World
Health Organization, Chapter 10: Leadership and Management, 2019).
