1.2. Black (2008)

1.3. Dimitrova (2008)

1.5. Hays (2008)

1.5.1. Hays (2008) equated being a servant leader to using Douglas McGregor's (1960) Theory Y management style as opposed to Theory X.

1.5.1.1. In Theory Y, leaders allow followers some autonomy and responsibility due to their self-direction and self-control. Work is seen as enjoyable and natural. Followers are valued for and encouraged in their imagination, ingenuity, and creativity.

1.5.1.2. In Theory X, employees tend to dislike work and do it only for pay and security. Leaders must be autocratic and closely supervise employees because they avoid responsibility.

1.5.2. Servant Teacher Instrument

1.5.2.1.1. Goal is to answer " In a time when flexibility, initiative, responsibility, ownership, self-direction, creativity, empowerment, and teamwork and collaboration are more essential than ever, does continuing to teach in ways that replicate command and control, hierarchy, and power disparities that promote dependence, compliance, and passivity rather than autonomy make sense?" (p. 114).

1.9.1.1.1. Neubert and colleagues conducted a CFA that revealed separate factors for servant leadership and initiating structure.

1.9.1.1.2. Their results suggest that promotion (vs. prevention) focus mediates the relationship between servant leadership and helping creative behaviors, suggesting that servant leadership can shift followers' focus from prevention to promotion. (p.360).

9.3.1.2.1. Through factor analysis, they reduced the number of items to 25 then the five dimension

9.4. van Dierendonck (2011)

9.4.1. "argued that of the attempts to measure servant leadership, only scales by Liden and colleagues (2008) and by Van Dierendonck and Nuijten (2011) met adequate psychometric standards" (p. 359 in Liden et al 2014).

9.4.2. References to

9.4.2.1. Liden et al (2014), p. 359-360, indicates that van Dierendonck's work uncovered a modest 14 refereed journal articles on servant leadership in the workplace.

9.4.2.1.1. Liden et al (2014) continues - "van D (2011) provided a six-point comprehensive review of SL research. First and overview and background of the construct; second the key components of SL, third the empirical and theoretical differences between SL and other leadership models, specifically transformational leadership, authentic leadership, ethical leadership, empowering leadership, spiritual leadership, self-sacrificing leadership, and Level 5 leadership (p.361).

9.5.1.2.2. Internal subscales is good; results show that the SLS has convergent validity with other leadership measures, and also adds unique elements to the leadership field. Evidence for criterion-related validity came from studies relating the eight dimensions to well-being and performance.

9.5.1.2.3. IMPLICATIONS: "With this survey, a valid and reliable instrument to measure the essential elements of servant leadership has been introduced" (p. 249)

9.5.1.3. ORIGINALITY/VALUE

9.5.1.3.1. "The SLS is the first measure where the underlying factor structure was developed and confirmed across several field studies in two countries."

9.6.1.1.1. In this study, support was found for a moderated-mediation model, showing that servant leadership has direct positive effects on team effectiveness as well as effects that are partially mediated by team potency.

9.6.1.1.2. Team potency also mediated the impact of goal clarity and process clarity on team effectiveness.

This study is similar to Neubert and colleagues' (2008) in that the impact of two different leadership models was investigated in the same study.

9.7.1.1.1. Difference between SL and transformational leadership clarified (p. 361)

9.8. Three Streams of Research

9.8.1. a) conceptual stream (Spears, 1998; Laub, 1999; Patterson, 2003)
