Conversations on Servant-Leadership: Insights on Human Courage in Life and Work

by Shann R. Ferch (Editor), Larry C. Spears (Editor), Mary McFarland (Editor)

In a world where organizations and leaders face conflicts and complexity at an alarming rate, where human cruelty sometimes dominates kindness in individuals and families, and where nations hover in the shadow of moral and financial collapse, how do we find courage to forge a strong and enduring path into the future? In this book, fourteen of the world's foremost thought leaders consider the role of leadership, love, and power in the midst of political and social upheaval. Included are interviews with former president of the Philippines Corazon Aquino; servant-leaders Margaret Wheatley, Ken Blanchard, George Zimmer, and James Autry; and others. They engage the significant leadership questions of our time and reveal an uncommon and life-affirming path toward families, organizations, and nations imbued with generosity and meaning.

This was a very interesting book with many interesting viewpoints about servant leadership. An excellent complement to the writings of Robert Greenleaf and others about servant leadership.
