At a time when leadership corruption threatens a hazard to sustainable organization development, a new brand of leadership governance is in demand. Therefore, the importance of this quantitative study was to examine a unique, newly proposed theory—stewardship leadership (SSL). SSL theory, based on a biblical worldview, was hypothesized to influence subordinates perceived organizational support (POS), subordinate affective commitment (AC), and subordinate organizational identification (OI) that, in turn, reinforces job embeddedness (JE) and reduces voluntary turnover intentions (TI) in comparison to servant (SL), transformational (TL), and leader-member exchange (LMX) leadership styles on work attitudes. SSL also appeared to be a composite of SL, TL, and LMX leadership styles from the literature reviews of each. Drawing on the stewardship theory, stewardship leadership, with its intrinsic commitment quality, was expected to develop the organization’s stakeholders into an inimitable force that garners a sustained competitive advantage. A Likert-style online fillable subordinate questionnaire provided data to test this theory through the collected data. Due to the abnormality of distribution, a non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis H test and a Spearman’s Rho analyzed data to evaluate subordinate RI and assess the relationships between stewardship leadership and its impact on POS, AC, OI, JE, and TI compared to SL, TL, and LMX leadership styles. Tests revealed that LMX was positively related to subordinates’ POS, AC, OI, JE, and TI.

The transformational leadership style has long been shown to elicit above average performance in followers; however, the reasoning behind why this process occurs is unclear.
