Summary, etc Leadership is an absolute necessity for the university. Leadership is needed to promote<br/>the effectiveness of the Higher Education Institution (HEI). One of the leadership<br/>approaches in this regard is Servant leadership which has a huge relevance in Higher<br/>Education Institutions (HEIs). It has the power of followers’ development in ethical,<br/>rational, emotional, relational, and spiritual dimensions. Servant Leadership is also<br/>considered as the source of developing the competitive advantage construct i.e.,<br/>Psychological Capital with its individual components; the HERO: Hope, Efficacy,<br/>Resilience and Optimism. Servant Leadership is connected with Psychological Capital<br/>rationally, conceptually, empirically and theoretically.<br/>This study was conducted to find out the influence of the Servant Leadership of the<br/>Department Heads on the Psychological Capital of the faculty members in a public<br/>sector University, KP, Pakistan. In order to accomplish the main objective of this<br/>research endeavor in a smooth and timely manner, it was further divided into sub-<br/>objectives with respective sub research questions and sub research hypotheses. The<br/>mixed-method convergent parallel design was utilized having descriptive design with<br/>survey strategy and case study for quantitative and qualitative part of the study<br/>respectively. All the faculty members (N=300) were selected as a census study for<br/>quantitative part of the study. The sample for the qualitative part of the study was<br/>subjected to saturation point which was reached at n=30.<br/>The adopted questionnaires were used to collect quantitative data while interview<br/>protocol developed from the adopted questionnaires was used to collect qualitative<br/>data. The analysis was done using descriptive and inferential statistics and thematic<br/>analysis for quantitative and qualitative data respectively. After separate analysis, the<br/>results from two data strands were integrated using joint display to reveal the<br/>convergence and divergence for better interpretation of the phenomenon.<br/>The Servant Leadership was found to be exercised more by the department’s heads in<br/>its four dimensions; Behaving Ethically, Development, Relation Building and Wisdom.<br/>The Psychological Capital level of the faculty members was high. The level of the<br/>dimensions of Psychological Capital; Self-Efficacy, Resilience and Optimism was high<br/>while hope was moderate. The Servant Leadership was found to be exercised less by<br/>xxiv<br/>the heads of the department in its three dimensions; Emotional Healing, Empowerment<br/>and Pioneers. The Servant Leadership was found to be positively and significantly<br/>correlated with Psychological Capital. The dimensions of the Servant Leadership were<br/>also found to be positively and significantly correlated with dimensions of<br/>Psychological Capital. Emotional Healing and Self-efficacy were found to have<br/>insignificant correlation. This was in divergence with qualitative findings which<br/>revealed that Emotional Healing and Self-efficacy are positively related.<br/>The Servant Leadership of the department heads was found to have significant and<br/>positive influence on the Psychological Capital of the faculty members. The dimensions<br/>of the Servant Leadership were also found to have significant and positive influence on<br/>the Psychological Capital except Relation Building which was found to have significant<br/>but negative influence. While Emotional Healing was found to have insignificant<br/>influence on the Psychological Capital. This was in divergence with qualitative findings<br/>which revealed that Emotional Healing and Relation Building have a positive influence<br/>on the Psychological Capital of the faculty members.<br/>Increase in Servant Leadership style of the department heads leads to increase in<br/>Psychological Capital of the faculty-members. Surprisingly, the quantitative findings<br/>revealed that Emotional Healing and Self-efficacy were not related but Qualitative<br/>findings revealed the depth from respondents and the two sub-dimensions were actually<br/>related. Unexpectedly, the Emotional Healing and Relation Building predicted the<br/>Psychological Capital significantly but negatively. The qualitative findings further<br/>explains that these two dimensions actually had a positive influence on the<br/>Psychological Capital.<br/>Overall, it was revealed that Servant Leadership is relevant and desirable at higher<br/>education as perceived by the faculty members. Leaders play a vital role in<br/>enhancement and development of the Psychological Capital of the followers. Three<br/>factors namely University related factors, Leadership related factors and Personal<br/>factors also influence the Psychological Capital of the faculty members. The theoretical<br/>and practical implications of the study were presented accordingly along with the<br/>suggestions for future research.
