Organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) to stem negative behaviours and enhance positive workplace behaviours. Research has shown the benefits of critically examining the development of OCB in both school leadership and educators.

Implications for the next steps in the process are provided for policymakers, administrators, and teachers to promote OCB in their schools.
