This book applies the principles of well-being theory and positive
psychology to sport to establish a basis of servant leadership in
sport organizations. Though the win-at-all-cost mentality is
pervasive in sport, leading to acceptance of leadership styles more
associated with controlling and extrinsic motivators, the author
proposes need satisfaction based on three psychological needs:
autonomy, competence, and belongingness, which leads to enhanced
job performance, job satisfaction, and well-being. Through need
satisfaction, servant leaders positively influence organizational
outcomes by enabling followers' growth and well-being. This book
will make a new contribution to sport management research in
applying the principles of positive psychology to servant
leadership and to sport.
