Objective: to understand the teaching of leadership in nurses’ training based on the professors’ perspectives. Method: this case study with a qualitative approach addressed 36 professors of a public university in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and document research and later submitted to thematic analysis using Nvivo. Paulo Freire’s theoretical framework was adopted. Results: leadership involves self-development, managerial capacity, and teamwork. Didactic strategies that facilitate the teaching of this competence include active methodologies, dialogue classes, and critical and problematizing discussions. Conclusion: it is essential to encourage debates and research on teaching leadership in the Nursing field to promote the development of this competence during the training of nurses to contribute to the quality of healthcare delivery.
