Abstract

In response to the demands of modern healthcare, effective leadership and cohesive teamwork are essential for ensuring high-quality patient care This study assesses the interrelationship among personal characteristics, coaching leadership, and teamwork of registered nurses working in Ormoc City hospitals. A descriptive-correlational research design was utilized, with data collected from 208 registered nurses across four hospitals in Ormoc City. The sample was selected via stratified random sampling to ensure proportional representation across the participating hospitals. Data collection employed a structured survey instrument divided into three sections: demographic profile, coaching leadership (based on the QUEPTAEEL instrument and teamwork (using the Nursing Teamwork Survey. Results revealed that the nursing workforce is predominantly young and female, with most respondents employed in private hospitals. Coaching leadership was positively perceived, particularly in the areas of communication and feedback, reflecting a supportive environment that encourages professional growth and skill development. Teamwork among nurses demonstrated high levels of mutual trust and shared mental models, although team orientation received moderate scores, suggesting challenges in aligning individual and team goals. Significant correlations were identified between personal characteristics—such as age, gender, and years of experience—and perceptions of coaching leadership and teamwork. Coaching leadership, especially through communication and support, was found to enhance mutual trust, backup behaviors, and shared mental models within nursing teams, ultimately fostering a cohesive and collaborative team environment. The study concludes that coaching leadership practices significantly contribute to teamwork effectiveness among nurses, with implications for healthcare management in promoting a culture of continuous learning, mutual support, and job satisfaction. Recommendations include implementing targeted training programs to enhance communication and delegation skills, developing structured mentorship initiatives to support younger nurses, and establishing team-building activities to strengthen team orientation.
