Servant Leadership: Serving Yourself and Others

Dr. Pearl Sumathi — Assistant Professor of Practice for the Department of Management in the Spears School of Business at Oklahoma State University

Servant leadership is all about serving others and yet be able to produce transformational change leading to a legacy for extraordinary leadership. Servant leadership is a philosophy and mindset that can be incorporated into one’s leadership style through deliberate practice. Servant leadership is a proven successful framework but yet it can be a disruptive leadership model as it can challenge the traditional leadership prototypes. Several authorities on servant leadership have suggested that to learn servant leadership, individuals need to undergo a journey of self-discovery and personal transformation (Page and Wong, 2000). Therefore, this seminar not only focuses on how to serving others but also enlightens on how to serve yourself before you serve others to make you a truly authentic servant leader. Come be a part of this powerful journey to learn how to lead by serving others. This seminar is specifically designed for current or aspiring managers.
