Servant Leadership Characteristics of School Teachers and Its Effect on Student Success and Organizational Health in Selected Public Schools

Abstract

This study utilized a survey to explore the relationships between servant leadership characteristics of school teachers, student success, and organizational health in selected public schools. This study hypothesized that the servant leadership of school teachers would positively affect student success and the organizational health of public schools. The Organizational Leadership Assessment was used (Laub, 1999) to collect data from fifteen public schools in Houston, Texas. Data were screened for normality, linearity, and homoscedasticity to ensure that the regression results were robust, and univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the nature of the relationship between organizational health and servant leadership. Descriptive analysis explained variance in dependent and independent variables. The values people subscale was statistically significant.
