Resumo: Research on authentic leadership and its impact on employees' psychological capital and creativity is almost non-existent In the health sector. To reduce this gap, this paper aims to identify to what extent the perception of authentic leadership and psychological capital influence the creativity of professionals in a large Portuguese hospital. Data were collected on the key concepts of authentic leadership, psychological capital and creativity. via a three-part questionnaire focusing respectively on positive authentic leadership, psychological capital, and demographic and functional data, which was administered to a sample of 61 middle managers in the various hospital services. 22 departments and 183 randomly-selected other employees. Fatorial analysis and structural equation modelling were used to process the results. The results confirmed two of the three hypotheses considered in the study, indicating that while a strong relationship existed both between authentic leadership and psychological capital, and between the latter and creativity, authentic leadership did not directly explain creativity. Our conclusion is that, in organizations providing health services, authentic leadership and psychological capital are phenomena that are interrelated in that they influence professionals' creativity.

Para reduzir essa lacuna, o objetivo deste texto foi identificar em que medida a percepção de uma liderança autêntica e o capital psicológico influenciam a criatividade dos profissionais de um Centro Hospitalar Português. Os dados relacionados com os conceitos de liderança, capital psicológico e criatividade foram obtidos por meio de um questionário constituído por três partes: capital psicológico positivo; liderança autêntica, e dados demográficos e funcionais, numa amostra de 61 líderes das chefias intermédias dos diversos serviços dos 22 departamentos de Centro Hospitalar, bem como de 183 colaboradores selecionados aleatoriamente pelos líderes. As respostas foram analisadas através da utilização das análises fatoriais e das equações estruturais. Os resultados obtidos confirmaram duas das três hipóteses consideradas no estudo, sugerindo a existência de uma forte relação entre a liderança autêntica e o capital psicológico, e entre este e a criatividade, não sendo explicada diretamente a criatividade pela liderança. Concluiu-se ainda que a liderança e ocapital psicológico têm, nas organizações de saúde, uma forte relação com a criatividade dos seus profissionaisUniversidade Católica Portuguesa2016-01-01T00:00:00Zjournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.7559/gestaoedesenvolvimento.2016.281oai:ojs.revistas.ucp.pt:article/281Gestão e Desenvolvimento; No 24 (2016); 47-75Gestão e Desenvolvimento; n. 24 (2016); 47-752184-56380872-556X10.7559/gestaoedesenvolvimento.2016.n24reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/gestaoedesenvolvimento/article/view/281https://doi.org/10.7559/gestaoedesenvolvimento.2016.281https://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/gestaoedesenvolvimento/article/view/281/268Direitos de Autor (c) 2016 Fernanda Nogueira, Carla Marques, Ana Sabino, Ivo Oliveira, Carlos Rouco, Ana Branca Carvalhohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNogueira, FernandaMarques, CarlaSabino, AnaOliveira, IvoRouco, CarlosCarvalho, Ana Branca2022-09-23T15:47:15Zoai:ojs.revistas.ucp.pt:article/281Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:04:35.198651Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
