No other way
Format: Kindle
I found “servant-leadership” as the best way to lead by the simple fact that, despite or even in spite of being counter intuitive and a paradox in itself, it is what Jesus showed us as “the way” - Do you want to lead? Be the last. That’s leading.

simple yet profound
Format: Kindle
The principles presented in this book are quite basic; serving others creates a motivation for them. Yet there is a difficulty in the personal challenges of servant-leadership to remain humble enough to know yourself and understand the concept of putting the highest good above one's own agenda. I enjoyed the examples of leaders who seemingly gave of themselves for the good of a bigger community. They understood their part of the greater good.

Timeless
Format: Kindle
Reading this book applies as much today as the day it was written. Greenleaf reminds us how to get back to the basics of leading well. It's simple; you have to care for those you lead. True leadership is touchy and feely--it's empathic. Through empathy, a leader learns she must serve her followers if she is going to lead them well. A must read!
