3. The Servant Leadership
The concept has been existing four decades,
yet did not received full attention until
almost a decade ago
“The servant-leader is servant first… It begins with the
natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then
conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. “
Robert K. Greenleaf
Global Indonesian Network / 2013, April 3
4. Are You One?
“Do those served grow as persons; do
they, while being served, become healthier,
wiser, freer, more autonomous (self-reliant),
more likely themselves to become servants?
And, what is the effect on the least privileged in society; will
they benefit, or, at least, will they not be further deprived?”
–Robert K. Greenleaf
Go to the People
Learn from them
Live with them
Start with what they know
Build with what they have.
But of the best leaders,
When the job is done,
When the task is
accomplished,
The people will all say,
“We have done it ourselves.”
Lao Tzu, 604 B.C.
Global Indonesian Network / 2013, April 4
5. Are You One? (ii)
“Rather than controlling or wielding power, the servant-
leader works to build a solid foundation or shared goals
by :
“You’ve got to produce more for less, and with greater speed than (1) listening deeply to understand the needs and concerns
you’ve ever done before. The only way you can do that in a of others;
sustained way is through the empowerment of people. And the
(2) working thoughtfully to help build a creative
only way you get empowerment is through high-trust cultures
consensus; and
and through the empowerment philosophy that turns bosses
(3) honoring the paradox of polarized parties and working
into servants and coaches…”
to create ‘third right answers’ that rise above the
Stephen Covey
compromise of ‘we/they’ negotiations” .
Ann McGee-Cooper and Duane Trammell
“Servant leadership is ethical, practical, and meaningful. It is ethical because it is about serving people, not using people. It is
practical because it is about identifying and meeting the needs of colleagues and customers. It is meaningful because servant-
leaders help their colleagues and organizations to grow, enhancing their service to others and contributing to the creation of a
more just, caring, prosperous, and sustainable world.”

CEO of the Greenleaf Centre for Servant Leadership (Asia)
