Abstract

This study explores the impact of Servant Leadership on Organizational Justice, Organizational Commitment, and Followers’ Thriving at Work. The methodology used is a structured conceptual framework, which synthesizes the literature from various previous relevant studies for the development and analysis of conceptual models. Servant Leadership, a leadership approach that prioritizes employee well-being and growth, is believed to create a supportive and fair work environment that increases employee attachment and loyalty to the organization. Organizational Justice, which includes distributive, procedural, and interactional justice, plays a crucial role in shaping employees’ perceptions of justice, which in turn influences their commitments. In addition, Followers’ Thriving at Work, which is characterized by vitality and learning in the workplace, serves as an important factor in strengthening Organizational Commitment by increasing employee engagement and motivation. This research proposes that Organizational Justice and Followers’ Thriving at Work act as mediators in the relationship between Servant Leadership and Organizational Commitment, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding how leadership behaviors contribute to a more committed and engaged workforce. The implications of these findings are discussed in relation to their relevance for organizations that aim to foster a more loyal, motivated, and high-performing workforce.
