Emotional Intelligence and Leadership Styles
Leadership is the act of guiding an institution or individuals towards the desired end result. Compassion, discernment and good decision making are good attributes of a leader. A nursing leader is a professional who is noble and also the protector of health in the community. Loss of trust in health facilities comes up when patients and their families start to notice irresponsible healthcare workers behavior. Emotional intelligence is the foundation that can provide the discernment to support teamwork, fruitfulness, motivation and much more. Depending on the type of leadership an organization uses, emotional intelligence can provide leaders with a connection to the employees.
Assessment of Situation
SGAH had been trending in the media due to poor leadership that had caused the death of patients.

Constantly training staff on crisis management, if necessary arrange a specific time to do the training to equip them with helpful skills.

Constantly evaluating the state of the hospital, engaging the staff in the healing procedure and using of soft language CITATION Ban19 \l 1033 (Alknawy, 2019). The leader should offer a personalized appearance, make time to listen and understand the staff CITATION Car20 \l 1033 (Moore, 2020). Giving a resolute focus to the goal and agreed priorities.
