Objective: the present research aims to study the relationship between strategies of conflict management and assertiveness of nurse managers in hospitals affiliated to Shiraz medical science university. Method: this is a correlative research and 110 subjects were chosen among nurse managers in hospitals affiliated to Shiraz medical science university and they completed Robbins questionnaire of conflict management styles (1991) and Aylin Gamneril & Cheryl Ricky’s assertiveness questionnaire (1998). Data obtained from the questionnaires were tested using correlation coefficient and multi-regression analysis. Results: results showed that there is a significantly positive relationship between conflict management styles and assertiveness of nurse managers in hospitals affiliated to Shiraz medical science university and simultaneous regression indicated that 25.3% of changes in assertiveness of managers can be explained based on conflict management styles and compromising style or competing style play the highest roles in prediction of assertiveness of managers.
