الملخص: | The purpose of this research is to explore and examine the similarities and differences
between the concepts of Servant Leadership (S-L) and Islamic Leadership (I-L) through
identifying the characteristics of both concepts as represented in the literature. Data,for
analysis were collected from three major secondary sources: the literature of Islamic
Leadership (I-L), Servant Leadership (S-L), and General Leadership (G-L). The result
of an approach based on hermeneutics and content analysis revealed that the concept of
Servant Leadership (S-L) accords with Islamic Leadership (I-L) particularly in the aspect
of how both of the concepts focus on the aspect ethical leadership. Moreover; based on the
nineteen clusters of Islamic Leadership (I-L) designed to examine the ten characteristics of
Servant Leadership (S-L) in the open and axial coding process, this research found that the
ten characteristics of S-L accord with the nineteen clusters, except in five clusters: justice
and equity; profit-orientation; moderation and balance; spiritual, religious, faith in God
and piety; and coerciveness under certain circumstances with limitations. The differences
have suggested that in general the literature of Servant Leadership (S-L) should be enriched
with more ideas pertaining to other aspects of leadership, for example Islamic Leadership
(I-L) besides those to do with organisational leadership, while the literature of Islamic
Leadership (I-L) should be enriched with more information pertaining to contemporary
leadership processes and contexts. |
