The exhibition of organisation citizenship behaviour (OCB) by teachers is of great
benefit for human capital development. Teachers’ perceptions of school principals as servant
leaders play a critical role in their psychological empowerment and exhibition of OCBs.The goal of the study was to analyse the relationship between servant
leadership, psychological empowerment and OCB of teachers in the South African school system.Teachers are usually under pressure to attend to the academic needs
of the learners, which may be required either during normal working hours or after hours.
This has necessitated the need to investigate the role played by a school principal’s servant
leadership style in influencing the exhibition of OCBs.
