Formel ledelsesautoritet er retten til at træffe ledelsesbeslutninger for en afgrænset del af en organisation og dens ansatte. Med udgangspunkt i litteraturen udvikler denne artikel et mål for formel ledelsesautoritet, som anvendes til at undersøge fordeling af formel ledelsesautoritet. Resultaterne fra en spørgeskemaundersøgelse blandt 181 ledende overlæger og 451 oversygeplejersker viser, at den formelle ledelsesautoritet varierer markant på tværs af typer af ledelsesbeslutninger og faggrupper. En eksplorativ sammenhængsanalyse viser, at formel ledelsesautoritet hænger positivt sammen med selvrapporteret visionsledelse og oplevelsen af at kunne løse ledelsesopgaver inden for den afsatte tid. Vi finder ingen sammenhæng med selvrapporteret brug af verbal anerkendelse eller oplevelsen af at have de nødvendige ledelsesmæssige kompetencer.
