Notes from ‘Lead Like Jesus’ – Part 3
More notes from Lead Like Jesus by Ken Blanchard
- The journey of servant leadership that starts in the heart must then travel through the head, which is the leader’s belief system and perspective on the role of the leader.
- There are 2 parts to the servant leadership that Jesus exemplified:
1) a visionary role – setting the course and the destination
2) an implementation role – doing things right with a focus on serving
- A compelling vision tells people who they are, whose they are, where they are going, and what will guide their journey.
- Once your vision is set, you can then establish goals to answer the question, “What do you want people to focus on now?”
- True success in servant leadership depends on how clearly the values are defined, ordered, and lived by the leader.
- When servant leadership begins, the traditional pyramid hierarchy must be turned upside down.
- Before trying to influence and engage others in working with you to create a compelling vision, you need to be clear about your own personal purpose.
- Servant leadership starts with a vision and ends with a servant heart that helps people live according to that vision.
