Bachelor Thesis from the year 2024 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1.0, , language: English, abstract: This thesis explores the relationship between the perceived importance of servant leadership principles among leaders and the actual success of change management in organizations. Through a comprehensive literature review and qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, the study assesses whether leaders who value and rationalize servant leadership effectively influence change. The thesis identifies a connection between servant leadership practices and successful change outcomes, as well as a partial alignment between the perception of leaders and the empirically determined realities of servant leadership¿s impact on change success. These practices foster an organizational culture supportive of change, enhancing trust, communication, and collective commitment to change initiatives. Despite the positive impact, the study acknowledges potential limitations in decision-making speed during urgent change scenarios. Overall, this thesis substantiates the critical role of servant leadership in navigating and sustaining organizational change, providing a robust framework for understanding and applying leadership principles in dynamic business environments.
