Servant Leadership: A Journey into the Nature of Legitimate Power and Greatness [Archive.org URL]

Twenty-five years ago Robert Greenleaf published these prophetic essays on what he coined servant leadership, a practical philosophy that replaces traditional autocratic leadership with a holistic, ethical approach. This highly influential book has been embraced by cutting edge management everywhere. Servant Leadership helps leaders find their true power and moral authority to lead. It helps those served become healthier, wiser, freer, and more autonomous. This book encourages collaboration, trust, listening, and empowerment. It offers long-lasting change, not a temporary fix and extends beyond business for leaders of all types of groups.

Peter Senge has said that he tells people “not to bother reading any other book about leadership until you first read Robert Greenleaf’s book, Servant-Leadership. I believe it is the most singular and useful statement on leadership I’ve come across.”
