Several steps are essential to shed light on the above concerns. Strong (2018) suggests readers pay close attention to the peer-reviewed process which offers the guarantee of an author&#8217;s competency by ensuring the feasibility of a &#8221; formal presentation and publishing of research&#8221; (para. 4). Second, the sampling process with issues of representativity and generalizability, and the replicability of a study would highlight consistency across the field. Third, the biases caused by the dependence of an author and the lack of acknowledgment of personal and intellectual predisposition brought into research can reveal the level of honesty of a study.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Part B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Why do you think evidence-based decision making is essential for the Transformational Servant leader (TSL)?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Part A of this blog shed light on three essential values critical to TSL.<br \/>\n<strong>Competency<\/strong>: TSL called leaders to develop Critical Thinking skills to grow in their competencies.
