Description
A guide to the philosophy and practice of servant leadership, with articles by a number of recognised consultants and practitioners in the field. It explains how true leaders are driven by a motivation to help and serve others, and shows how these principles can be profitably employed in business institutions and organisations. First conceived over 30 years ago by celebrated American management guru Robert Greenleaf, the ideas of servant leadership are only now beginning to acquire major international recognition. The book is supported and endorsed by the UK's Greenleaf Centre for Servant Leadership. Contributors include James Autry, Lance Bloch, Olle Bloom, Charlie Foote, Jan Gunnarsson, Bob Henry, Jaap Huttenga, Jane Little, Terri McNerney, George SanFacon, Henry Stewart and Andrew Walsh.
