Page and Wong (2000) developed their servant leadership instrument but stopped short of conducting factor analysis and scale reliability tests, thus, we, in this present article, set out to extend Page and Wong's work and to see if their items would reduce to the factors that they originally intended. In this article we present a brief overview of servant leadership and we present the research procedures that we followed along with our analysis. Bennis and Nanus (1985), Block (1993), De Pree (1989, Greenleaf (1977), and Kouzes and Posner (1993) all contend that among the most important leadership requirements for leaders are those related to service and empowerment. This contention is supported by Russell and Stone (2002) who state that serving offers the potential to positively revolutionize interpersonal work relations and organizational life. This confirms the work of Farling et al. (1999) servant leadership model that was based on the variables of vision, influence, credibility, trust, and service. Page and Wong's (2000) work concurs with two factors of Farling et al.'s (1999) servant leadership model (a) vision, and (b) service.
