Leadership Week 6 Discussion

Q Servant leadership is serving followers first and by paying attention to their needs, empathizing with their concerns, and supporting their growth, followers are motivating to high performance. Similar to many other leadership theories, a leader’s behavior is evidence that serving is top priority. The Model of Servant Leadership Behavior (Northouse, 2016) identifies seven servant leadership behaviors that can be measured an important behavior for serving others. Review two servant leadership websites, Robert E. Greenleaf The Center For Servant Leadership, https://www.greenleaf.org/ and Servant Leader Institute, https://www.servantleadershipinstitute.com/ and select a blog on the website to share and provide further information about servant leadership behaviors. Respond to the following questions: Describe the key points of the servant leadership blog you chose. What new insights did you learn about servant leadership? Review the seven leadership behaviors and using a scale of 1-7 rate their level of contribution to serving followers. In other words, what behavior is most important and what behavior is not as important. Discuss why you chose the rating. Provide an example of the servant leadership behavior you ranked as number one. Reference: Northouse (2016) Leadership theory and practice (7th ed) Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage publications.

The article that I chose from the servant leadership blog from Greenleaf is “The Servant and the Lion” which has been written by Eric Russell. In this article mainly he describes the epic 12th-century tale by the name of “The Knight of the Lion” which was written by a French poet Chretien de Troyes. The tale is about a knight named Yvain saving lion from the trap of serpent(Russell, 2018).
