Background: Most leadership problems involve more complexity than that, where the outcome isn’t predictable, and frequently require the ongoing management of tension between two or more seemingly opposite but nevertheless interdependent values. The leaders should recognize polarities and the value that each pole brings their solutions. Aim: The present study aimed to assess effect of educational training program on nurse managers' knowledge about polarity management at Assuit University Hospital. Subject and methods: A quasi-experimental research design was used to conduct this study. A convenience sampling technique was used to select a group of (50) nurse managers. Two tools were used throughout the study phases. Tool (I): classified into three parts; personal data sheet, Knowledge questionnaire about polarity management, and polarity map < /div> application test. Tool (II) : Evaluation of the education training program (opinionnaire sheet) . Results: The majority of nurse managers had lacking in knowledge about polarity management and also had poor skills in polarity management before training. There was a significant improvement in all items and a total score of nurse managers' knowledge and skills of polarity management after implementation of training program than before. Conclusion: Training program was highly effective in improving nurse managers' knowledge and skills in polarity management. Recommendations: Polarity management awareness should be included in the orientation programs for the newly appointed managers, polarity management should be involved in performance appraisal for nursing managers, and the curriculum of nursing administration course in faculties of nursing in Egypt should add topics of polarity management.
