Book excerpt: This qualitative single case study set forth to discover how working for an identified servant leadership law enforcement agency influenced the wellbeing of police officers. The study took place in a police department located in the Southwestern United States. The department involved in this study had openly adopted the servant leadership philosophy and their executive leaders have been publicly identified as servant leaders. The purpose of the study was to discover how members of the police department understand their own wellbeing as a result of being a member of an identified servant leadership agency. The results of the study support the position that serving with a servant leadership law enforcement agency positively influences the wellbeing of officers. The study’s implication is that it strengthens the argument for infusing servant leadership into law enforcement organizations as a way to improve the health and wellbeing of officers and the communities they serve.
