Servant Leadership
“Good leaders must first become
good servants.”
Robert Greenleaf1904-1990
• Originated in the writings of Robert Greenleaf (early 1970s)
• Paradoxical – both service and influence oriented, seems counter-intuitive
• Views service as an end, not solely as a means to other organizational outcomes
• Aligned with other leadership theories e.g. “authentic”, “transformational”
• Different conceptualizations, e.g. trait vs. behavioural
• Applicable across different organizational roles/types
• Context is important• Can be learned and developed
