This month’s topic:  S = S  (Serving equals Serving)

The “How-To” Formula for Servant Leadership

We are often asked, “How do I be a servant-leader? What are the things I need to do? Is there a list of action items I can follow?”    

In this month’s Servant Leadership Community of Practice, we will discuss the genius and challenge of Robert Greenleaf’s ‘how-to’ formula for servant leadership. Greenleaf and servant leadership scholar Isabel Lopez says, “The formula is simple, S = S. Serving = Serving.”  

Understanding the concept of serving is at the heart of understanding servant leadership. Yet this foundational word is often misunderstood.

Using small and large group discussions with peers, attendees will explore key learning lessons from Greenleaf’s writings about servant leadership to:

• Define serving.
  
• Develop actionable servant leadership “how to” behaviors.
• Realize the importance of authentically understanding servant leadership, personally and in organizations, at this time in history.

This session will be facilitated by Christa Williams, Sophia Partner’s Executive Director and Learning Facilitator.
