Background: This paper aims to survey different parameters of servant
leadership model and proposes a theoretical scheme to apply in hospital
management. It additionally examines the applicability of this model in Police
Hospitals.
Materials and Methods: The study exploits an applied-development
approach as well as a descriptive-survey design among 374 members of
hospital executives, physicians and faculty members in two categories. The
sample was chosen by Ray Morgan research population estimation method.
251 members were chosen based on simple random sampling. Data gathering
was done according to the Likert-type scale with 7 levels and the reliability of
0.89. Moreover, statistical analysis was based on confirmatory factor analysis
examination, structural equation modeling as well as fitting model with SPSS
and Lisrel toolkits.
Results: The analysis of data showed that enabler and insightfulness are the
most and the less important characteristics of servant-based leadership in
hospital management with the factor weighting of 0.79 and 0.3 respectively.
Additionally, the second order conformity factor analysis and the final fitting
index demonstrated that twelve variables out of the total number of eighteen
were confirmed. So five characteristics and twelve variables were confirmed at
the end. It is mentionable that highly agreeable fitting scales (RMSEA=0.098,
GFI=0.95, AGFI=0.94) show a reliable fitting pattern.
Conclusion: It can be concluded that having a comprehensive enabling plan
is the most important expectations of members from an executive chief in
a servant leadership approach. Therefore we suggest holding workshops for
hospital managers in the light of operational leadership and empowering
employees to increase their skill in planning.
