Abstract

This research contributes to the field of study on servant leadership. It is also part of the field of study on the leader's psychological. The main objective of this research is to study the effect of the practice of servant leadership on the psychological health of the leader himself, on his commitment and his intent to quit the organisation. Also, we examine the moderating effect of organisational variables (the perceived of organisational support and interpersonal justice) on this relationship. The research results from 291 leaders confirm positive relationship between servant leadership practice and the job satisfaction of these leaders. This study has interesting implications for the development of a socially responsible organisation that wants to promote the psychological health of its leaders and employees. Servant leadership is a particularly interesting avenue thanks to all its positive effects on organisations.
