Data were collected from 221 front -line employees, a 37% response rate, 104 work ing in four-star hotels and 93 work ing in five-star hotels, using anonymously completed questionnaires. Consistent with other research on front-line work ers, respondents were generally young, had relatively short organizational tenures, and had high school educations. Previously developed and validated measures of servant leadership (Liden, Wayne, Zhao & Henderson, 2008) and service quali ty (Parasuraman, Zeithaml & Berry, 1998) were used and both were found to be highly reliable in this study. Respondents work ing in five -star hotels reported lower levels of servant leadership with respondents work ing in four - and fivetar hotels indicating similar levels of service quality.enArticle163310221597
