Advisors serve in many, often overlooked, roles. We investigated the supposition that McClellan (2007a) espoused between academic advising and servant leadership. Our hypotheses, that measures of servant leadership and developmental advising are correlated and that wisdom is the best predictor of developmental advising behaviors, were supported. We used Winston and Sandor's (1984) "Academic Advising Inventory" and Barbuto and Wheeler's (2006) "Servant Leadership Questionnaire" to examine the relationship. Our sample consisted of 223 undergraduates at a midsized university in the southeastern United States. Implications for practice include enhancing advisor training and development.
