Part business book, part self-help book, part inspirational book, The Servant Leader is a tool to help you take God out of the spiritual compartment of your life and give Him free reign in all your daily actions and relationships—especially your leadership roles.
Best-selling author of The One-Minute Manager, Ken Blanchard, along with Phil Hodges, reveals the meaning of servant leadership as modeled by Jesus. Based on Blanchard's and Hodges' Faith Walk seminars, The Servant Leader summarizes the Four Dimensions of Leadership:
- the head (assumptions and thinking)
- the hands (application and leadership behavior)
- the heart (motives and EGO—Edging God Out or Exalting God Only)
- the habits (solitude, prayer, study of scripture, unconditional love, etc.)
Beautifully illustrated throughout, this book will inspire readers to become serving, rather than self-serving, leaders.
"Effective leadership starts on the inside. Are you a servant leader, or a self-serving leader?"
