Abstract: The study examined the link between servant leadership and teachers' stress through the mediating role of teacher engagement. The study adopted the positivist philosophy, focusing mainly on the explanatory design. A structured questionnaire was used to gather data from 291 teachers randomly selected from the 11 senior high schools in the Cape Coast metropolis of Ghana. The PLS-SEM was used to analyse the data. The study found that servant leadership had no significant relationship with reduced stress. The study further disclosed that servant leadership had significant positive relationship with teacher engagement while teacher engagement also had a significant positive relationship with their reduced stress. Finally, we found that teacher engagement had a full significant mediation in the relationship between servant leadership and reduced stress of teachers.
