Seven Pillars of Servant Leadership Model: Leading by Serving, Serving First

Who is the Servant-Leader? “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. The best test is: Do those served grow as persons; do they, while being served, become healthier, freer, more autonomous, more likely to themselves to become servants?” - Robert K. Greenleaf, 1970

Servant Leadership “The first and most important choice a leader makes is the choice to serve, without which one’s capacity to lead is severely limited.” - Robert K. Greenleaf, 1970
