The objective of the present study was to investigate the relationship between servant leadership and intrapreneurship by the explanation of the role of organizational culture in the private banks (Pasargad, Parsian, Eghtesad-e Novin, Dey) of districts one, two and, three of the city of Tehran. The population of the study includes the entire employees of the banks of Pasargad, Parsian, Eghtesad-e Novin, and Dey located in districts one to three of Tehran, counting as 616 individuals. In terms of objective, the present study is a developmental applied study. Through the application of the Cochran's formula, the research sample size was determined as 425 individuals. The samples have been collected through the application of stratified sampling method and the required research data were collected through the application of the servant leadership, intrapreneurship and, organizational culture inventories. For the purposes of analysis of the yielded information and testing of the hypotheses, the statistical tests of K-S, ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficient were made use of. Findings revealed that the culture of the Pasargad Bank is a compatible culture in which there exists a statistically significant relationship between the variables of servant leadership and intrapreneurship (0.82). The culture of the Parsian bank, on the other hand, does not hold any statistically significant relationship between the former and latter variables. Not unlike the Pasargad Bank's, the culture of Eghtesad-e Novin Bank is also a compatible one in which there is a statistically significant relationship between the former and latter variables (0.78). Lastly, it has been found out that similarly to the Parsian bank's, the culture governing the atmosphere of The Dey bank also lacks any statistically significant relationship between the variables under study.
