  • Background: The objectives of this study were 1) to describe the leadership style of the head of the room as assessed from the perception of the nurse; 2) to analyze the relationship between leadership style and leadership outcomes. Methods: This type of observational research is analytic with a cross-sectional approach which was conducted at the Anutapura Hospital, Palu in August 2020, collected from 123 nurses. Data collection uses the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire Rater Form (5x-Short) which consists of 45 items with 4 constructs, namely transformational, transactional, passive-avoidant and leader's outcomes. Results: The nurse perceives that the head of the room sometimes uses transformational and transactional leadership styles but occasionally uses passive-avoidant leadership styles. The transformational leadership style has a very strong relationship with the leadership results of the head of the room. Transactional leadership style has a strong relationship with the leadership results of the head of the room. Passive-avoidant leadership style has no significant relationship with leadership outcomes. Conclusions: The combination of the leadership style of the head of the room can provide leadership results following the expectations of the nurse.
