The article clearly states its purpose in the first opening sentences, \u201cThis paper examines the philosophical foundation of servant leadership by extracting several value-laden principles drawn from Greenland\u2019s and Jesus Christ\u2019s delineation of the concept\u201d (Sendjaya & Sarros, 2002, p. 57). The overall focus is thereby appropriate given its intent. The sources and participants are appropriate as well.<\/p>\n
\tIt\u2019s important to note at this point that this article was based more on qualitative than quantitative research. There was barely any numerical data. Instead, it used onions, reasons, and motivations to delve further into what servant leadership is comprised of. All of this means that this article would naturally score more on the qualitative chart than the quantitative one (Plano Clark & Creswell, 2015, p.184-185). <\/p>\n
\tAll of the above taken into account leads me to rate the article a three in every category with the exception of number five and six. Category five states that \u201cThe purpose is narrowed through research questions and\/or hypotheses\u201d (Plano Clark & Creswell, 2015, p. 184). Category six states that \u201cThe purpose follows logically from the statement of the problem and literature review\u201d (Plano Clark & Creswell, 2015, p. 184). The reason why I wouldn\u2019t give a three in these categories is that the article was more explanatory than it was research question oriented. In tune with this, it doesn\u2019t really address a problem or seeks to explain a proposed statement or question. It is because of these that I would rate lower in these two categories. <\/p>\n
