Servant-Leadership in Government
One of the questions I am occasionally asked is: 'Do you think the President of the United States can be a Servant-Leader?' What a great question! As for an answer....I'll let all of you ponder the question for awhile first.
In the meantime, the Pratt, KS Chamber of Commerce executive director wrote this very nice article about the City Manager and the city's administration for their willingness to embrace a servant-leadership model of governance. Not only does Jeanette, the exec. director, give high marks to the city's administrators, she really seems to grasp what servant-leadership is all about.
Are you still waiting for me to answer the question? Well, I'll answer with another question (the teacher in me is coming thru a bit this morning): If servant-leadership works in city government, why would it not work for the federal government in leading the nation?
