Seven Pillars of Servant Leadership
Model: Leading by Serving, Serving First
Who is the Servant-Leader?
“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. The best test is: Do those served grow
as persons; do they, while being served, become
healthier, freer, more autonomous, more likely to
themselves to become servants?”
- Robert K. Greenleaf, 1970
“The first and most important choice a
leader makes is the choice to serve,
without which one’s capacity to lead is
severely limited.”
- Robert K. Greenleaf, 1970

when there is freedom for initiative to act.”
