Scientific studies show that new ways of leading are reaching the various organisational contexts, with increasingly humanistic approaches. Servant leadership is one of these contemporary approaches that has presented important directions of how people expect leaders to act to win their followers. This study sought to apply the concepts of servant leadership in a religious organisation, framed by the Catholic Church as a New Community, known by the name of Manain. It is a Brazilian organisation, located in the city of Caruaru in the state of Pernambuco. Its main focus is humanitarian and evangelisation work, where young people and adults work voluntarily. The study manages to provide evidence that servant leadership is present in this organisational reality, signalling possible behaviours that can be assumed by leaders in different organisational contexts.
