Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between servant leadership and global leadership using a correlational cross-sectional quantitative research design. A sample of 330 organizational managers from central Peninsula Malaysia was analyzed using two established instruments to measure servant leadership and global leadership traits. The research focuses on the interplay between servant leadership attributes—such as altruistic calling, emotional healing, wisdom, persuasive mapping, and organizational stewardship—and global leadership competencies, including cultural intelligence, emotional intelligence, and managing complexity. The statistical analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between servant leadership traits and global leadership competencies. These findings offer valuable insights into the role of servant leadership in enhancing global leadership effectiveness across diverse organizational contexts.
