THE CASE STUDY HAS BEEN COMPLETED FOR YOU JUST READ THROUGH IT AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW!

You are the CEO of a medium-sized educational nonprofit organization. As is common with nonprofits, employee wages are not the most competitive, so other methods of employee motivation and morale must be fostered. For these reasons, you are interested in finding out if having more servant-leadership-minded executives foster greater workplace spirituality. You have a hunch that an executive team that aspires towards servant leadership, fosters greater spirituality in the workplace.

You also think this is something that is of greater importance for your female managers than for the male managers. You are thinking of sending your top executives through servant leadership training which is costly, and may be faced with resistance by some of them. Further, in the future, you plan to recruit individuals who have experience with and are dedicated to servant leadership. You may also want to make some policy changes to promote greater spirituality in the workplace. You have identified a study which compared how important servant leadership was to male and female staff at a private non-denominational elementary school. The private school surveyed 40 employees (20 male and 20 female) using a Likert scale asking employees how important spirituality was in the workplace.

The scale consisted of:

Not Very Important – Slightly Important – Important – Extremely Important

1                                2                             3                4

(Interpreting Research Finding)

Since you believe in the importance of data-driven decision making, before you make any changes that may be disruptive to the organizations culture, you conduct some secondary research via fee-based business databases to which you subscribe. You find a great study that helps to inform your problem.

Mean of Male Respondents             

• Mean is 2.50                                   

• Standard Deviation is .89

• N is 20

Mean of Female Respondents

• Mean is 3.50

• Standard Deviation is .61

• N is 20

P value and statistical significance:

• The two-tailed P value equals 0.0002. By conventional criteria, this difference is considered to be extremely statistically significant.

Confidence interval:

The mean of Group One minus Group Two equals -1.00

95% confidence interval of this difference: From -1.49 to -0.51

Intermediate values used in calculations:

t = 4.1560

df = 38

standard error of difference = 0.241

ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS

1. Summarize the findings from the study:

What do the means between Male and Female suggest?

Is the standard deviation acceptable, or does it make you question the validity of the data?

What does the t-test measure? What do the t-test results suggest?

2. What are the benefits of conducting research prior to making a leadership decision?

 Are there times or circumstances under which it would be best to make a decision that is contrary to the research?

Provide an example of a situation in which – as a leader – you might choose to go against the

research data.
