The Servant Leader: How to Build a Creative Team, Develop Great Morale, and Improve Bottom-Line Performance

A Practical Guide to Using the Principles of Servant Leadership

Leadership is a
calling. And servant leadership-the idea that managing with respect, honesty, love,
and spirituality empowers employees-helps individuals answer that calling. Bestselling
author and former Fortune 500 executive James A. Autry reveals the servant leader’s
tools, a set of skills and ideals that will transform the way business is done. It
helps leaders nurture the needs and goals of those who look to them for leadership.
The result is a more productive, successful, and happier organization, and a more
meaningful life for the leader.

Autry reveals how to remain true to the servant leadership
model when handling day-to-day and long-term management situations, including how
to:

*Provide guidance during conflict and crisis
*Assure your continued growth
and progress as a leader
*Train managers in the principles of servant leadership
*Transform a company with morale problems into a great place to work

Practiced
by one-third of the companies on Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For list,
servant leadership is a thriving philosophy. Ultimately, Autry explores how it can
be a valuable, refreshing, and rewarding approach to leading others in business life.
