International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Abstract

Servant-leadership is a way of life that brings with it refreshing simplicity to the seemingly complex, multi-layered nuances of relationship, and, centrally, a call toward the deepest regard for human dignity. The validity of a servant-led perspective is shown in one of the great and persevering dynamics of human nature: the ultimate truth demonstrated in humbling oneself in order to serve the most significant needs of another person. This idea, of the servant who leads, is as compelling today as it has been throughout history. Notably, in order to develop servant-leadership in the life of an organization, simplicity, not complexity, becomes very important. The simple notion of good thinking contains the power to change not only the individual person but also entire organizations, and accordingly, good thinking is the engine behind the kind of awareness and foresight that inform a servant-led way of life. One pathway from which to explore good thinking is in the daily life of the executive.
