 The novelty of the research by adding the dimensions of personal leadership and leadership ethics to the servant leadership variables in the previous research by (Sendjaya et al., 2019). The addition of this dimension aims to present a new perspective and complement the needs of leadership that is able to bring quality, increase relevance and accuracy in evaluating the effectiveness of servant leadership.

The results of this study show that the better the implementation of servant leadership, the lower the organizational deviant behavior and effect to the maturity performance. The findings were further enriched through sensitivity testing of the servant leadership dimension, which showed that the dimensions of personal leadership and leadership ethics had a greater effect on maturity performance. The current remuneration system has not been able to prevent deviant behavior but has the effect of improving maturity performance. On the other hand, the application of talent management that is currently applied has not been able to have an effect on reducing deviant behavior and maturity performance. The results of this study can contribute to the management of BLU in improving maturity performance. In addition, the results of the study can also support regulatory transformation for BLU maturity assessment.

In his brief remarks, Dr. Wilda Farah expressed his gratitude and gratitude to all parties who have supported his journey and hoped that his achievement could contribute to encouraging the public sector, especially BLU, to improve the implementation of better, transparent, innovative, and sustainable BLU governance.
