Servant Leadership and Religious Values: Drawing Speculation to Commonalities between Servant Leadership Characteristics and Faith-Based Values

Abstract

The theory of servant leadership has been considered a grey area within leadership literature, as certain perspectives suggest the theory to resemble an oxymoron as it focuses on service and leading others. However, literature reflects servant leadership to have a positive impact on organization and team level performance. The focus of paper was to draw conclusion to an existence of commonalities between servant leadership characteristics and faith-based values.
