SERVANT LEADERSHIP (GREENLEAF,1970)
Begins with a natural feeling that one wants to serve first
Makes sure that other people’s highest priority needs are being served
Focuses primarily on the growth and well-being of people and the communities
Robert Greenleaf recognized that organizations as well as individuals could be servant-
leaders:
“This is my thesis: caring for persons, the more able and the less able serving each
other, is the rock upon which a good society is built.”
