Comparing the impact of management on public and private sector nurses in the UK, Italy, and Australia
研究比较了澳大利亚、英国和意大利公立与私立部门护士对管理实践的感知差异，发现私立部门护士在自主权、幸福感、敬业度和情感承诺方面评价更高，对护士管理者有重要启示。
The research examined the impact of management upon employee outcomes (perceptions of discretionary power, well-being, engagement, and affective commitment), comparing public and private sector nurses in Australia, the United Kingdom, and Italy. Overall, 1,945 nurses participated in a self-report survey within these core- and laggard-New Public Management countries. While management influenced employee outcomes for each country, there were significant differences between the public and private sectors, with private sector nurses reporting higher perceptions of outcomes. Importantly, nurses’ engagement was affected by management practice for each country. This study raises important implications for nurse managers, especially public sector managers, described within.
