| Sumario: | Introduction: The technological spread of the job market requires the development of differentiated skills and competences of nurses, so that they can assume new managerial and organizational responsibilities. Objective: to identify instruments in the literature to assess the skills necessary for leadership in nursing. Method: an integrative literature review which used the bases Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) and Scopus. Results: 10 studies were selected in this review, which identified the following instruments: Ambulance Nurse Competence (ANC) scale; Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI); Clinical Leadership Needs Analysis (CLeeNA) Instrument; Cotter Preceptor Selection Instrument (CPSI); Performance Evaluation Tool; Leadership and Management Inventory; Advanced Practice Nursing Competency Assessment Instrument (APNCAI); Kuopio University Hospital Transformational Leadership Scale (KUHTLS); Multisource Feedback (MSF), and an instrument whose title was not informed by the authors, consisting of constructs to enable nursing leader communication behaviors. Conclusion: This integrative literature review identified ten instruments to assess essential competencies for leadership in nursing. Communication was identified as one of the main competencies aligned with the role of manager. Decision making, social skills, team management, up-to-date information, strategic and financial management are extremely important elements in the nurse's managerial and care exercise, so that a harmonious relationship is established between leaders and those who are led in the job process. |
