Servant leadership and employee's commitment among non-academic staff in higher education

Servant leadership has a significant positive effect on employee commitment, perceived organizational support (POS), and trust in leadership. POS and trust in leadership partially mediate the relationship between servant leadership and employee commitment. The study contributes to limited research on servant leadership in Ghana's higher education context. Findings provide practical implications for university administrators seeking to improve employee commitment through effective leadership strategies. Adopting servant leadership principles can lead to a more committed and supportive workforce in higher education institutions. Cultivating trust and support through servant leadership is crucial for fostering employee loyalty and commitment. Organizations should implement servant leadership styles to create an empowering work environment that enhances employee commitment.
