The purpose of this mixed-method research study was to determine the extent that servant leadership was correlated with perceptions of school climate to identify whether there was a relationship between principals’ and teachers’ perceived practice of servant leadership and of school climate. The study employed a mixed-method approach by first administering two validated quantitative instruments: Laub's (1998) Organizational Leadership Assessment (OLA) measured the perceived servant leadership in the schools and Hoy, Tarter, & Kottkamp’s (1991) Organizational Climate Description Questionnaire-Revised (OCDQ-RE) measured the school’s climate. These instruments were administered to a randomly selected sample of 231 full-time teachers and 15 principals working in a Catholic school board in Ontario. Upon completion of the quantitative data analysis, focus group interviews were conducted with 10% of the sample. The data revealed a significant positive correlation between servant leadership and school climate

- A Systematic Literature Review of Servant Leadership Theory in Organizational Contexts (2012, methodology): “The OLA has been widely used in health organizations (OLA Group), and was used in six quantitative studies in our sample (Herman 2010; Black 2010; Cerit 2010; Cerit 2009; Irving and Longbotham 2007; Joseph and Winston 2005).”
- School climate, academic self-efficacy and student achievement (2020, background): “Based on evidence such as the above, school climate has become a staple of organisational-educational research, being regarded as both a factor determining a broad range of school outcomes and an outcome in its own right (e.g., Black, 2010; Kelley et al., 2005).”
