Summary
The Serving Leader is an engaging and moving story about an estranged son and his dying father who both learn a new way to lead that transforms their lives and their work. The Serving Leader advances our understanding of Servant Leadership-a form of leadership based on selflessly serving one's team, organization, or community that was first popularized by Robert K. Greenleaf thirty years ago and has since become a widely espoused concept - bringing together classical Greenleaf theory with more recent research and practice. Taking an action orientation, this book focuses on practical actions that real people are already demonstrating. Kenneth R Jennings, Ph.D. is a senior partner at VentureWorks. He delivers engagements to clients in leadership development, strategy, and the management of change. John D. Stahl-Wert is president of Pittsburgh Leadership Foundation, a 25-year-old community building collaborative.
