Analysis using the analytical technique to the explanation construction. Results: Three thematic categories were evidenced, demonstrating that the best leadership practices involve technical and non-technical competencies anchored in behavioral development, scientific knowledge, guidelines for quality and patient safety and participatory management of the health team. Conclusion: The best leadership practices of nurses who contribute to hospital risk management pervade technical skills and/or formal positions, valuing each team professional in a unique way and emphasizing the importance of scientific knowledge and the professional reference model that the nurse exercises in hospitals.
