  Who Is The Servant Leader?  

".... the great leader is seen as servant first, and that simple fact is the key to his greatness.

The servant leader is servant first... It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead."

Robert K. Greenleaf
"The Servant as Leader"

 
What Does The Servant Leader Serve?
A servant leader holds both organisational goals and people development in stewardship.

The servant leader serves the purpose and intentions of the organisation and/or team as well as the growth and development of the people being led.
 
What Is The Best Test ?

"The best test (of a servant leader), and difficult to administer, is: do those served grow as persons; do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants? And, what is the effect on the least privileged in society; will he benefit, or at least, will he not be further deprived?"
