The Serving Leader

5 Powerful Actions That Will Transform Your
Team, Your Business, and Your Community

Foreword by Ken Blanchard

image

The Serving Leader makes the case for a new kind of business leadership, based on a moral code, more effective than the traditional approach. Serving leaders are qualified to be first by putting other people first. Ken Jennings and John Stahl-Wert explain this paradox, outlining the basics of servant leadership in this business fable. Telling the story about an estranged son, his dying father, and a remarkable group of innovative leaders, the authors illustrate five key principles of servant leadership. This is the most practical servant leadership guide available, as well as a tale about the personal journey of growth that real leadership requires.

Berrett-Koehler is an independent publisher dedicated to an ambitious mission: Creating a World That Works for All.

We believe that to truly create a better world, action is needed at all levels—individual, organizational, and societal. At the individual level, our publications help people align their lives with their values and with their aspirations for a better world. At the organizational level, our publications promote progressive leadership and management practices, socially responsible approaches to business, and humane and effective organizations. At the societal level, our publications advance social and economic justice, shared prosperity, sustainability, and new solutions to national and global issues.

A major theme of our publications is “Opening Up New Space.” Berrett-Koehler titles challenge conventional thinking, introduce new ideas, and foster positive change. Their common quest is changing the underlying beliefs, mindsets, institutions, and structures that keep generating the same cycles of problems, no matter who our leaders are or what improvement programs we adopt.

We strive to practice what we preach—to operate our publishing company in line with the ideas in our books. At the core of our approach is stewardship, which we define as a deep sense of responsibility to administer the company for the benefit of all of our “stakeholder” groups: authors, customers, employees, investors, service providers, and the communities and environment around us.

We are grateful to the thousands of readers, authors, and other friends of the company who consider themselves to be part of the “BK Community.” We hope that you, too, will join us in our mission.

A BK Business Book

This book is part of our BK Business series. BK Business titles pioneer new and progressive leadership and management practices in all types of public, private, and nonprofit organizations.
