Description

Jesus Agustin-Silvestre and three colleagues test whether servant leadership makes teachers happier and workplaces feel fairer. In this style, leaders put the growth and welfare of followers first. They surveyed 210 teachers aged twenty-one to sixty-eight. Validated scales measured leadership, work happiness, and organizational justice, and the team modeled the links statistically.

Servant leadership showed a strong positive effect on work happiness and a smaller positive effect on perceived justice. Happiness in turn strongly predicted justice perceptions. The measurement model proved reliable on all standard checks. The authors offer the results to leaders in education. Leading by serving may be a practical route to happier staff who see their organizations as more just.
