Aim:
Less empirical attention has been paid to the positive relationship between voice behaviour and voice speaker development, such as self-leadership. The present study explores the relationship among nurses' voice, perceived insider status and self-leadership.
Method:
This study was based on time-lagged survey data collected from 608 frontline nurses. jamovi and PROCESS macro were used for analysis.
Results:
Promotive voice and prohibitive voice were positively associated with self-leadership. Perceived inside status mediated the relationship between promotive voice/prohibitive voice and self-leadership. Prohibitive voice was more strongly related to self-leadership than promotive voice.
Conclusions:
When nurses dare to voice, nurses' self-leadership can be enhanced through perceived insider status improving, especially for nurses who dare to prohibitive voice.
Implications For Nursing Management:
Nurse managers should protect the privacy of voice, continually provide feedback on voice and set up special encouragement for prohibitive voice.
