at identifying the relationship between workplace empowerment and innovative work behavior
among staff nurses. Design: A descriptive correlational design was used in carrying out this study.

care units) which is affiliated to Ain Shams University. Subjects of the study included 166 staff
nurses out of 292 they were chosen by simple random technique. Tolls of data collection: two tools
