Observations on Servant Leadership |
|
Definition
open to chaos
able to accept mystery
not much that is really important can be accomplished with coercive power
Nothing much happens without a dream
to refuse to examine the assumptions one lives by is immoral
In the end, all that matters is love and friendship [emphasis on relationships] |
