In healthcare organizations, saving patients' lives while maintaining the staff's wellbeing, performance and competencies were challenging during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although the complexity of healthcare settings is widely recognized, the pandemic evidenced the necessity of attending to the employees' wellbeing in such a sector. This research aims to examine the effect of sustainable leadership on wellbeing of healthcare personnel. Furthermore, we also evaluate whether procedural knowledge and compassion act as mediators in such a relationship.
The hypothesized model was tested in healthcare organizations in a South Asian country, and the data were collected during the pandemic crisis. A total of 366 health personnel (physicians and nurses) participated in this research. With Hayes' PROCESS macro, we examined all the direct and indirect paths, including sequential mediation.
The findings confirm the impact of sustainable leadership on wellbeing and this relationship is also mediated by procedural knowledge and compassion.
DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: Sustainable leadership fosters wellbeing among healthcare workers the sequential mediation of procedural knowledge and compassion. Study findings suggest that sustainable leaders can trigger procedural knowledge among employees which in turn crafts the state of compassion in them that leads to their wellbeing. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed in light of study findings.
在医疗保健机构中，在新冠疫情期间，既要挽救患者生命，又要维护员工的福祉、绩效和能力，这极具挑战性。尽管医疗环境的复杂性已得到广泛认可，但疫情证明了在该领域关注员工福祉的必要性。本研究旨在探讨可持续领导力对医护人员福祉的影响。此外，我们还评估程序知识和同情心在这种关系中是否起到中介作用。
在一个南亚国家的医疗保健机构中对假设模型进行了测试，并在疫情危机期间收集了数据。共有366名卫生人员（医生和护士）参与了本研究。我们使用海耶斯的PROCESS宏程序检验了所有直接和间接路径，包括顺序中介作用。
研究结果证实了可持续领导力对福祉的影响，并且这种关系还通过程序知识和同情心起中介作用。
讨论/结论：可持续领导力通过程序知识和同情心的顺序中介作用促进医护人员的福祉。研究结果表明，可持续领导者能够激发员工的程序知识，进而塑造他们的同情心状态，从而带来他们的福祉。根据研究结果讨论了理论和实践意义。
