Description
Alberto Gonzalez-Garcia and co-authors catalog the communication traits of nurse managers, in a 2026 review. Communication competence holds hospital teams together and shapes choices, safety, and care quality each day. Its core traits had never been summed up in one sweep.
The review followed standard rules with a protocol on record, and four databases were searched across a decade of literature. Fifteen studies met the bar to get in, and twenty-three distinct traits stood after grouping and refinement. Active listening tied at the top for how often it was reported, with verifying understanding beside it. Strategic multi-channel planning matched them as well. Contextual and organizational factors colored how the traits show, and behavior patterns counted next to raw skills. The synthesis gives training programs a concrete checklist, and nurse leadership gains an evidence base. Care settings beyond nursing may borrow the frame.
