IN Global Challenge we often talk about servant leadership and what it entails. After every conversation I yet again realise how far I have yet to grow in this. The past week I had the privilege of listening to a convesation between my fathers previous colleagues about my father and his leadership. Hearing what impact servant leadership has on the people you lead made my want to live this even more.
I learned that:
Servant leadership is modelled, not taught.
A servant leader sets an example and principles which is followed long after the leader has left.
Respect is earned by respecting others
A leader has the responsibillity to be well in informed and one step ahead of the team.
A leader has to be approachable in order to take team the team where he leads.
WHat an awesome privilege to be able to watch and learn this from my father.
