The document discusses the concept of servant leadership, where the leader's primary purpose is serving the needs of their followers rather than exercising power over them. It originated with Robert Greenleaf in the 1970s and focuses on developing the leadership qualities of empathy, healing, awareness, persuasion, conceptualization, foresight, stewardship, commitment to growth of people, and building community. Key attributes of servant leaders are being inspirational, empathetic, listening, and withdrawing from the spotlight to empower others.
