Aim: The purpose of this study was to define crisis leadership in the nursing context.

Background: Leadership during critical situations is perhaps the most crucial element for crisis resolution.

Methods: Rodgers' evolutionary approach was used to conduct a concept analysis on crisis leadership and find its critical attributes, antecedents, and consequences. The researchers examined articles published in English and Korean from six databases. Articles from 2000 to 2016-with the key terms of crisis leadership, crisis management, crisis intervention, crisis, and disaster-were considered for analysis. Eleven studies were included in the final review.

Results: The core attributes of crisis leadership from a nursing perspective consisted of six attributes: clear, fast, frank communication; a high degree of collaboration; sharing of information; decision-making and fair prioritization; building trust; competency.

Conclusions: Based on this review, crisis leadership should be revised to focus on competency, nursing interventions, measurement tools, and training protocol development.

The goal of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a leadership training intervention on direct reports' perceptions of the leadership skills of supervising residents and subsequently on the well-being of the direct reports.
