Servant Leadership

Becoming a servant leader requires you to focus your attention away from yourself and put the spotlight on your employees, growing and empowering them first. The command-and-control leadership structure of the past 20th century is dead, and if you want to build and sustain a great company in this 21st century, you must be willing to serve.

Robert K. Greenleaf observed that leaders with a servant mindset got the best out of their employees; they were more motivated, inspired, creative, and productive, which led to excellent business results. It's the foundational attitude of leadership; it's not about you; it's all about the people you serve and helping them become the absolute best version of themselves.
