Background:
The Vroom-Yetton-Jago Leadership Model served as a model to determine if leaders could be taught the appropriate level of group involvement in decision-making.
Method:
A convenience sample of 27 health care leaders who attended a 90-minute class offered in one institution were eligible for inclusion in the study and pre- and post-performance on similar case studies was measured.
Results:
Using a paired t test, results for this sample were statistically significant (t [21] = 6.02, p < .001).
Conclusion:
These results suggest that participating in a class on the use of this leadership model may help leaders gain the skill needed to appropriately delegate decision-making to groups.
