Background: Coaching as a leadership approach is a powerful vehicle to enhance staff nurses’ cohesion as it supports teamwork by the provision of a framework for conversation and therefore enhancing communication, focusing and clarifying participated goals, developing trust, collaboration and achieving collective outcomes. Aim: Assess the relation between head nurses' coaching leadership behaviors and staff nurses' cohesion. Design: A descriptive correlational design was used. Setting: The present study was carried out at Tanta University Main Hospital. Subjects: include all (N=35) available head nurses and a simple random sample (n=260) of staff nurses. Tools: two tools were used to collect data; coaching leadership behaviors’ and staff nurses’ cohesion structured questionnaires. Results: More than two thirds (68.6%) of head nurses had high level of coaching leadership behaviors. While, the majority (83.5%) of staff nurses perceived that head nurses had low level. As well as, more than half (55%) of staff nurses had low level of cohesion and more than forty (45%) of them had moderate level. Conclusion: There was a significant positive correlation between head nurses' coaching leadership behaviors and staff nurses' cohesion.
