Are we Servants first, or Leaders first? Are we self-serving? Look at how people take feedback. This is a quick way to tell the difference, because on of the biggest fears of the self-serving leader have is losing their position.
Self-serving leaders spend most of their time protecting their status. Give them feedback and they usually respond negatively
Servant leaders look at leadership as an act of service. They embrace and welcome feedback as a source of useful information on how they can provide better service.
Self-serving leaders who are addicted to power, recognition and who are afraid of loss of position are not likely to spend any time or effort training their replacements.

Design Thinking, while striving to create value, seeks a role of servant leadership in its processes of collaboration.
Maj. Gen. David Sprynczynatyk, North Dakota National Guard adjutant general, speaks to students in grades 4-8 at St. Mary's School in Bismarck, N.D., on Tuesday, Nov. 30. St. Mary's focuses on Servant Leadership and invited Sprynczynatyk to speak to students on the topic.
In Northridge, like many other small American towns, the school is the anchor of the community. Northridge was one of the hardest hit areas by the tornados. While it wasn't totally clear until daylight, everyone who was watching knew the damage was going to be severe. The potential that lives were lost or that people were seriously injured and trapped in their homes was very high. By daybreak, the school superintendent, Dave Jackson, had made a plan to help, and sent texts to teachers and staff asking anyone who was able to meet at the Board office by morning. They came. They were sent out in pairs with student addresses so they could check on all of their children and their families. Can you imagine what it felt like walking up to houses like this, wondering if anyone was still alive? These teachers climbed over debris, live wires, fallen trees etc. until everyone was accounted for. This is love. This is dedication. This is being a servant. These are the true heroes in our communities. We will be providing shoes and socks to anyone in this area who needs them in a few days. Can you share this please, so others can see what a true hero acts like?

The ultimate servant leader is Jesus Christ. It is He whom thousands, nay millions of worshippers will seek to adore during this season and that is good. Indeed, all persons ought to worship Him every day of every year. It is He who is at the centre of our educational system and programmes, which is why our Mission Statement reads in part that we offer here at Northern Caribbean University “quality Christ-centred education, achieved through academic excellence, social interaction, physical and spiritual development and a strong work ethic…” Let us guide you on the path to servant leadership with an NCU education that you may be transformed to transform others, join us in January or August 2012.

Managers Plan, Staff and Problem Solve. Leaders Provide Direction, Alignment and Motivation.
It is difficult to change behaviors, attitudes, and leadership styles. In fact, the pain of not changing usually has to be greater than the pain of changing if there is to be any shift at all.
.... each of us has leadership qualities that emerge when the right moment arises for us. Leadership is situational and evolves over time as we learn to take on more responsibility.
Leaders have influence; very few have the degree of control they think they have.
What is a leader? Where does it come from? Studies show that leaders talk faster, there is a dominance factor, there is an intelligence factor, a social IQ factor. Social IQ is the ability to engage people and get them to move in a certain direction. Persistence is a factor. High energy level is a factor. Leaders like leading.
The emerging need is for transformational leaders. They are charismatic, visionary.
The skills needed to lead: an understanding of human behavior, self and others; understanding of organization behavior; ability to predict the reaction of the group; how to intervene with problem solving and change skills. Skill building is a key. Congruency between verbal and non verbal communication is important. When you sit up it forces you to pay attention. Leaders do not slouch in a meeting. Leaders give you attention in order to receive attention.
The majority of your influence will come from the spoken word
Author and speaker Kent Keith presented “Choosing a Life of Servant Leadership” as part of the Celebrating Arts and Ideas series at Aurora University on March 19, 2012.
By opening time, attendance had already exceeded our projections. Asking the Ritz Charles for extra chairs was a great problem to have!
Your support and excitement have energized us to charge ahead with the vision to impact the marketplace with a biblical worldview, which amounts to an unbeatable business, community growth, and life strategy.
Special thanks to Ted Hollis at Baker & Daniels LLP and Benefit Strategies, Inc. for their generous support of the Indiana Christian business community. We also thank our volunteers, panelists, and special guests Roxanne Wilson and John David Webster.

The aim of this trip was to bring together divided and diverse neighbours across Cape Town in order to encounter moments of healing and glimpses of transformation that have been sadly absent from our process of growth as a democratic nation. The trip wss guided by the principles and policies of Agang SA that believe in the need to pragmatically and constructively address the socio-political issues that face us as a nation, guided by the principles of Active Citizenship and Servant-Leadership. The trip visited a number of communities in Khayelistsha as well as a Wynberg shelter for abused women from Lavender Hill.
