Servant leadership is a term that often, as stated by Northouse, seems contradictory and challenges our traditional beliefs about leadership (2019, p. 227). The literal definition of a leader is to point the direction for others to follow, and for a servant to follow those they serve.
That said, servant leadership has become a key philosophy within leadership. In this paper, assess how a leader can be both a leader and a servant at the same time, and present two specific strategies a person can follow to ensure they become a leader and a servant that influences others to follow.
Your well-written paper should meet the following requirements:
