Week 3! This week we are transitioning to servant leadership. The idea of servant
leadership may seem contradictory. Servants are thought of as meek and followers of those
with great stature, while the term leader inspires images of those that come first and
receive great honor. The focus this week will be on the characteristics of a servant leader, as
well as how to operationalize those characteristics in one’s life through personal mission,
vision, and values. The objectives this week include: • Discuss the principles of servant
leadership.• Propose a quality improvement initiative. • Compare intrinsic and extrinsic
motivation. • Describe characteristics of performance-driven teams. The assignment this
week will proposing a quality improvement initiative from your place of employment that
could easily be implemented if approved. Please use the attached paper template to

• The purpose of the quality improvement initiative. • The target population or audience.•
