| Description | This chapter explores the art and practice of servant leadership – its philosophy and goals, as well as best practice guidance for leaders who aspire to become great servant leaders. Servant leaders are, in one sense, revolutionaries. They take the traditional power leadership model and flip it completely upside down. Under this new hierarchy, the people – or employees, in a business context – are at the very top, and the leader is at the bottom, charged with serving the employees above them. In the 19th and 20th centuries, some of the popular servant leaders were human rights liberators. In modern-day leadership circles, the concept gained much currency with Robert Greenleaf's 1971 essay, The Servant as Leader. If serving the team and all its members is the bedrock principle of servant leadership, there are two core best practices that go a long way toward achieving that goal: close listening and searching questions.
