It aims to fill the gaps in literature regarding the individual practitioner-servant leadership in digital education settings. Ethical considerations were rigorously maintained. This research adapted qualitative research approaches guided by the SL-7 scale to identify servant teachers and semi-structured interviews to capture their lived experiences. Data analysis employed interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) through Osborn and Smith's (2006) four stages of IPA. The analysis yielded seven core themes: engagement, technology, experiences, impact, well-being, performance, and policies. The study illuminates how pedagogical approaches need to be student-centered but were technologically constrained from a servant teacher's perspective, thus shedding light on the dynamics of servant leadership on supportive and nurturing pedagogies in education during emergencies. The research contributes to the discourse on leadership in digital education by emphasizing the value of servant leadership traits in enhancing student satisfaction, retention, and overall academic well-being. 2026 by Divya Dosaya, Anupama Sadasivan, Sonia David, Athira M. and Palak Pipalia.
