Leadership style of Yae Niijima : comparison with Florence Nightingale

This paper examines the leadership styles of Yae Niijima and Florence Nightingale using an analytical framework based on leadership theories. The accomplishments and personal qualities of the two women are examined at four different stages of their lives. The primary findings are that Niijima would have exercised situational leadership and trait contingency model leadership while Nightingale exercised strategic leadership. The key factor that caused the difference in their leadership styles was that the latter had a life mission already in her adolescence while the former didnʼt. One factor that enabled Niijima and Nightingale to exercise effective leadership roles was that both had advanced level education opportunities in liberal arts and professional areas that were rarely available to women in the male-dominated society of the 19th century. The personal qualities commonly observed between the two included enthusiasm, devotion, confidence, and toughness.論文 (Article
