Paying attention
Sorry for the couple of days away folks.....in-service week has kept me rather busy!
There are always a handful of people who notice the blog and link to it each week. I'm always grateful for this, but I don't make a big deal of it (perhaps I should) because the purpose here is to keep focused on being faithful to servant leadership as Greenleaf defined it. And from this my hope is that more of us, myself included, will work harder to live that model in today's world. However, a couple of folks who linked here recently caught my eye for various reasons and I thought I would point them out:

However, a couple of folks who linked here recently caught my eye for various reasons and I thought I would point them out:
- Kent Blumberg lays out what he thinks servant leadership is all about here. Very well done and he links to this outstanding article which I had not seen before from the University of Nebraska Extension Office which lays out their views on the characteristics of being a servant-leader.
- Someone who I met when I first started blogging, Bill Kinnon, pays us a nice compliment on a couple of recent posts. Bill calls me Terry rather than Trevor in the post, but that's OK as I've been called much worse! :-)
- Tom over at HR for the Leader in You also speaks of how much he enjoys our blog here. Tom is correct, we do work hard to make sense of the power of serving people as their leader. We certainly aren't the only ones, we aren't the biggest, and we probably aren't the best either....but much like trying to become a servant-leader, we continue to work at it.
