S2Leadership is the Leadership Edge
Research shows that the effective leader in any environment is a Servant Leader and a Steward Leader.
- A Steward Leader is one who recognizes that no one ultimately lead as an owner. In fact, few of us own the organizations we lead — and none of us own the people we lead or the clients we serve. Yet most of our paradigms about leadership flow from a sense that some of us are owners and some are not.
How else can we explain the rash of scandals in organizations today except to say some very prominent leaders acted out of a sense of entitlement — to people’s lives as well as things?
What’s needed in every organization today are people who understand that their role is fundamentally that of a steward. Effective leaders need a sound sense of reality. And the reality is that ultimately we are not owners — not even if we own the organization we lead.
Every organization has a manifold of stakeholders. Leaders are responsible to all of them. The welfare of the organization and its members depends on meeting those responsibilities.
Explore the implications of leading from a Steward Perspective — and develop the skills to do it yourself.
- A Servant Leader is one who recognizes what the research is telling us — that effective leaders function in two dimensions. When it comes to mission, vision and purpose, they chart the course. When it comes to implementation, they provide the support needed to achieve excellence.
Learn what is means to be a Servant Leader — and develop the understanding and skills required to be an effective Servant Leader in all phases of your life.
