IJSL Submission Guidelines and Subscriptions


The International Journal of Servant-Leadership: Submissions

The journal welcomes manuscripts both theoretical and research-based (in APA format), essays and shorter pieces, poetry, book reviews, film reviews, as well as articles that are practice-oriented. 

The journal is peer-reviewed by an exceptional editorial board.

All identifying information concerning author(s) should be restricted to the title page.  Include a brief one-paragraph bio for each author.  Except in cases of editor-invited manuscripts, submission of a manuscript to The International Journal of Servant-leadership implies the manuscript has not been published elsewhere, nor is it under consideration by another journal. 

Please send a copy of the manuscript by email attachment in Microsoft Word to the Editor in Chief, Dr. Shann Ray Ferch.

Non-manuscript communications can also be sent to Dr. Ferch.
