This study aims to analyse the role of servant leadership in improving employee satisfaction and performance. Servant leadership is a leadership style that emphasises service to subordinates, with the main objective of facilitating employee growth and development. The research method used is a literature study by collecting and analysing various articles and scientific journals related to servant leadership, job satisfaction, and employee performance. The results showed that servant leadership has a positive and significant influence on job satisfaction and employee performance. Servant leaders who prioritise empathy, personal development, empowerment, and ethical behaviour can increase employees' sense of job satisfaction.
