How important is Servant Leadership and Organizational Climate?

This book expanded on the current theoretical understanding of servant leadership and offered some insights into the direct effect of servant leadership on both proximal (job frustration) and distal (career commitment) outcomes for individual employees. This book is significant because the effects of servant leadership studied to date have focused largely on the connection of employees to the organization (organizational commitment). The results of this study show that servant leadership has direct effects on how employees view not only the daily nature of their jobs but also the extent to which they may stay in their career. Results of the present study indicate that organizations need to take into account servant leadership and the impact leadership styles have on employees. Theoretical and practical implications of the study are discussed.
