Abstract

Problem The scholarship of leadership abounds with the affordances, limitations, antecedents, and outcomes associated with the different theories in Human Resource Development (HRD) literature. However, a clear delineation between the host of individual leadership theories does not exist. Absent is a nuanced view of the similarities, differences, and any overlap between the various leadership theories. Without a clear understanding of the relationships between leadership theories, knowing when to apply which theories and when becomes difficult. Solution A systematic review of the literature surrounding servant leadership (SL) through 2022 was conducted to position SL among the more extensively researched transactional and transformational leadership theories. This article outlines the histories of the three theories, focusing on the characteristics, pervasiveness, antecedents, outcomes, and measurement of SL to distinguishing it from transactional and transformational leadership.; Stakeholders: Human resource development, human resource management, and organizational behavior scholars, practitioners, educators, and students. In addition, organizational leaders responsible for setting the organization’s vision and practitioners responsible for designing leadership development programs will benefit from this article.

区分仆人型领导与交易型和转型型领导

问题领导力的学术研究充满了与人力资源开发（HRD）文献中不同理论相关的可供性、局限性、前因和结果。然而，许多个人领导理论之间并不存在明确的界限。缺乏对各种领导理论之间的相似性、差异性和任何重叠之处的细致入微的看法。如果不清楚地理解领导理论之间的关系，就很难知道何时应用哪些理论。解决方案对2022年之前围绕仆人领导（SL）的文献进行了系统回顾，以将SL定位为更广泛研究的交易型和转型型领导理论之一。本文概述了这三种理论的历史，重点介绍了SL的特征、普遍性、前因、结果和衡量方法，以将其与交易型和转型型领导区分开来。；利益相关者：人力资源开发、人力资源管理和组织行为学者、从业者、教育工作者和学生。此外，负责制定组织愿景的组织领导者和负责设计领导力发展计划的从业者将从本文中受益。
