Abstract

This study explored the relationship between teachers’ perceptions of servant leadership and their levels of organizational empowerment, while examining whether gender serves as a moderating variable in this relationship. The sample consisted of 632 high school teachers working in Istanbul districts with varying socio-economic characteristics. In this study, data were collected using three measurement tools: "Personal Information Form", "Servant Leadership Scale", and "Teacher Behavioral Empowerment Scale". Structural equation modeling was employed for data analysis. The findings indicated that teachers’ perceptions of servant leadership significantly and positively predicted their levels of organizational empowerment. Although the existing literature reported gender-based differences in leadership perceptions, multi-group structural equation modeling results revealed that gender did not moderate this relationship.

Özet

Bu çalışma, öğretmenlerin hizmetkar liderlik algıları ile örgütsel güçlenme düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi, cinsiyetin bu ilişkide düzenleyici bir değişken olarak rol oynayıp oynamadığını inceleyerek araştırmıştır. Çalışmanın örneklemi, İstanbul'un farklı sosyo-ekonomik özelliklere sahip ilçelerinde görev yapan 632 lise öğretmeninden oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmada veriler "Kişisel Bilgi Formu", “Hizmetkâr Liderlik Ölçeği” ve “Öğretmenlerin Davranışsal Güçlendirme Ölçeği” olmak üzere üç ölçüm aracı ile toplanmıştır. Veri analizinde yapısal eşitlik modellemesi (YEM) kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, öğretmenlerin hizmetkar liderlik algılarının, örgütsel güçlenme düzeylerini anlamlı ve pozitif yönde yordadığını göstermiştir. Mevcut literatürde liderlik algılarına dayalı cinsiyet farklılıkları rapor edilmiş olmasına rağmen çoklu gruplu yapısal eşitlik modellemesi sonuçları, cinsiyetin bu ilişkiyi düzenlemediğini ortaya koymuştur.
