Keeping in mind that the article was written in 2002, most of the relevant sources are from the early 2000\u2019s and late 90\u2019s. Being that the article references Jesus and the Bible it can\u2019t go without saying that there are a few older sources included as well! Overall, the authors wanted to give researchers one place where they could get caught up in the field of leadership. Which is also why they have older sources from the 1940\u2019s. Ironically, the article has many sources but takes note of how little there are on the subject of servant leadership, \u201cOne reason for the scarcity of research on servant leadership is that the very notion of \u2018servant as leader\u2019 is an oxymoron\u201d (Sendjaya &amp; Sarros, 2002, p.57). This proves that they are well versed in what research has been done in the area of leadership. In regards to the source list itself, all references are documented properly and are thoughtfully synthesized with the help of appropriate subheadings.<\/p>\n<p>It is clear throughout the article that the sources are supported by the literature and are being used as a solid conceptual framework. Case in point, under the subheading \u2018Greenleaf\u2019s Model of Servant Leadership\u2019 there is an explanation of Greenleaf\u2019s model as it pertains to the origin of servant leadership. The section is supported by references and direct quotes from the Greenleaf source. This section also provides good evidence of qualitative research within the article as it compares and contrasts present and past trees and thoughts. Concerning quantitate research, the article doesn\u2019t really contain a lot of studies as evidence. By extension, the article doesn\u2019t contain any illustrations (graphs, charts, surveys, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>\tEverything about the sources included in this article seems good in all categories. The article wasn\u2019t discussing their own findings or results and so there really isn\u2019t much of a hypothesis or analysis to comment on. They did, however, include a lot of data from different sources to give insight on the basics of servant leadership. I believe the way they integrated sources and presented them was in a comprehensive and easy to follow manner. Overall, there was sufficient information that showed a quality quantitative process. <\/p>\n<p>Sources<\/p>\n<p>Plano Clark, V. L., &amp; Creswell, J. W. (2015). Understanding Research (2nd ed.).
