Despite emerging evidence of effective strategies for reducing burnout among health professionals, health professional burnout continues increasing.A systematic Model of Leadership Influence for Health Professional Wellbeing is presented suggesting steps to measurably improve wellbeing by managing or mitigating stressors that generate burnout.This paper examines (a) the psychometric properties of the Nurse Wellbeing Self-Assessment's (NWSAT)© four 10-item scales and (b) whether and how the Model of Leadership Influence can apply NWSAT results to reduce burnout. Using nurse survey data (N = 1,394) from one large eastern US healthcare system, the four NWSAT scales are psychometrically evaluated.Predictive tests demonstrate the fit of the Model of Leadership Influence by documenting associations between NWSAT and burnout. All four NWSAT scales are strongly and inversely associated with burnout.Leaders can use NWSAT to systematically implement and evaluate a variety of strategies to improve staff wellbeing in one or more domains of NWSAT to manage or mitigate specific stressors that may otherwise contribute toward burnout. |
