Begrebet ”distribueret ledelse”, som betegner et ledelsesfænomen, hvor medarbejderne og den formelle ledelse deles om ledelsesopgaverne med henblik på at påvirke ressourcer, beslutninger og mål i en organisation, har i stigende grad tiltrukket sig opmærksomhed indenfor forskningen i organisationspsykologi og generisk ledelsesteori. Denne artikel introducerer begrebet til den offentlige ledelseslitteratur samt undersøger dets empiriske relevans for forskellige organisatoriske performancemål. Under anvendelse af registerdata samt spørgeskemadata indsamlet på et af landets største hospitaler, viser artiklen, at hospitalsafdelinger med høj grad af distribueret ledelse også har mere tilfredse og innovative medarbejdere samt medarbejdere, der rapporterer højere individuel performance. Resultaterne tyder desuden på, at distribueret ledelse også er relateret til lavere sygefravær blandt de hospitalsansatte. Disse sammenhænge indikerer, at distribueret ledelse er et relevant fænomen for offentlige ledere og for forskningen i offentlig ledelse.
