International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Abstract

This article was made possible by our dear friend and mentor, Curtis E. (Bill) Bottum, who was an avid follower and friend of Robert K. Greenleaf. As President and CEO of Townsend and Bottum, a worldwide leader in power plant construction, Bill advanced servant-leadership as the company's guiding philosophy and established the first council of equals there. He also served on the Greenleaf Center's board oftrustees for over twenty years. We each spent a lot of time with Bill, both separately and together, discussing servant-leadership and the first-amongequals governance model. This article is, in part, an extension of those discussions and that experience. As such, it is dedicated to Bill's wonderful and enduring spirit.
