Writing at the Doctoral Level

Servant leadership can be described as leadership where the leader’s main goal is

to serve (Yang et al., 2017). The concept of servant leadership is thousands of years old and is

typically assumed to be a Christian idea. However, Gandolfi and Stone (2018) suggests that this

is false and that the teachings of Confucius and aspects of the Zhou Dynasty show signs of

organization (Hoover & Douglas, 2018).

can also encourage more participation. ”Thus, when a team is characterized by small power

distance, team members become more willing to accept the servant leadership approach and
