10.1 Servant Leadership Definition

Begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve
first.

Then conscious choice brings one to want to lead

First to make sure that other peoples highest priority needs are
being served.

The best test . . . is:

Do those served grow as persons;

Do they, while being served, become better, wiser, freer, more

independent, more likely themselves to become servants? And,

What is the effect on the least advantaged in society;

will they benefit, or, at least, will they not be further deprived?
