#1 Servant Leadership: Building Better Organization
While servant leadership is a timeless concept, the phrase “servant leadership” was coined by Robert K. Greenleaf in "The Servant as Leader", an essay that he first published in 1970.
In that essay, Greenleaf said: “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. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions.

Those are characteristics that everyone must posses to be a good leader and servant
Indeed. We should have that kind of leaders here in the Philippines but unfortunately only a few of them @jeffzalamea
Yes a leader must serve to his/her people like God he is a leader but he serve all his people but as what is commonly practice the people will serve to the leader.
Right, its a good thing to have a good leader servant in the country today. We always pray that for the next leader to lead here in our country.
