ABSTRACT
This article examines the effects of servant leader ship behaviours of primary school
principals on teacher job satisfaction. The population of this study is 29 primary
schools in Düzce, Turkey. Data were collected from 595 teachers working in primary
schools in Düzce province of Turkey. Servant leader ship behaviours of principals were
determined with the servant leader ship scale developed by Laub (1999) while teacher
job satisfaction was determined using the job satisfaction scale developed by Mohrman
et al. (1977). Mean, standard deviation, correlation and multi-regression test was used
in data analysis. Strong positive relationship was revealed between servant leader ship
behaviours of school principals and teachers’ job satisfaction and servant leader ship
was a significant predictor of teacher job satisfaction.
