These findings show that servant leadership and organizational agility are highly implemented in the sampled hospitals. The two were found to have a significant positive relationship which proves that supportive and empowering leadership increases organizational responsiveness and adaptability. The article emphasizes the role of servant leadership as a management philosophy in private hospitals in terms of increasing agility, higher quality of services, and overall performance.
