Abstract

How servant leadership influences health and performance on a daily basis? We draw on the person-environment fit and the Job Demand-Resources (JD-R) perspectives to examine follower’s health and performance variations related to the congruence between servant leadership needed and received. Based on a daily within-person examination, among firefighters, results indicated that emotional exhaustion is lower on days when received servant leadership fit followers’ needs. We also found that emotional exhaustion mediated the within-person effects of servant leadership needed and received on followers’ daily task performance. Implications to theory and practice are discussed.
