Servant leadership is a philosophy and practice of leadership, coined and defined by Robert Greenleaf and supported by many leadership and management writers such as James Autry, Ken Blanchard, Stephen Covey, Peter Block, Peter Senge, Max DePree, Larry Spears, Margaret Wheatley, Jim Hunter, Kent Keith, Ken Jennings and others. Servant-leaders achieve results for their organizations by giving priority attention to the needs of their colleagues and those they serve. Servant-leaders are often seen as humble stewards of their organization's resources (human, financial and physical).

- There is a swing in corporate boardrooms and human resource training that has nothing to do with innovation and productivity. It is a shift in philosophy away from the dog-eat-dog way of climbing to the top and stomping on top of people along the way. It is not your father's way of doing business but in this world of consciousness, it is the one way to best identify the new heart and soul of today's businessmen and women. That philosophy is a new way of leading. Its foundation is spiritual and its roots old and ancient but the effect that servant leadership has on an organization whether non-profit or for-profit is immeasurable.

- Author and motivational speaker Zig Zigler said that you can have everything in life you want if you only help enough other people get what they want first. That, in essence, is the foundation of the servant leadership management model. More to the point, if you serve your employees interests before your own they willunderstand that the organization is doing what's best for them and act in a way that benefits the whole of their own accord.Although it might sound a bit touchy-feely, there is concrete evidence that suggests it isn't merely feel-good nonsense.
