Research studies on situational leadership often focus on matching leadership style with team maturity, but very few studies have explored situational leadership in pandemic situations. This study aims to identify the most effective leadership style during the COVID-19 pandemic. We introduce the situational model commonly used to enhance the performance of medical crisis teams based on team members' maturity. Additionally, we discuss the decision to implement delegating leadership during the pandemic. By identifying the most appropriate leadership style based on the team's maturity, we can recommend activities to help medical care teams maintain their performance during pandemics.
