Conceptualisation of servant leadership in the Samoan teacher education context


Abstract

This qualitative case study seeks to understand the conceptualisation and application of Greenleaf’s servant leadership attributes of participants at the Faculty of Education (FOE) of the National University of Samoa (NUS). At present, studies on servant leadership conducted in education systems and institutions demonstrate a positive relationship between servant leadership and school climate, principals’ school management, student achievement and interdependency. It is an indication of a growing interest in the concept and its practical application to the workplace. Previous research on servant leadership had been confined to the business arena.
