Leaders we

choose to follow...

choose to

SERVE

Leaders who choose to serve.

Servants who choose to lead.

We've been working on a book about servant leadership. It might be more accurate to say that the book has been working on us.

These incredible servant leaders transform lives. They are people we choose to follow. We give them permission to have a deep and profound influence in our lives. We don't follow them simply because we have to - or because we're stuck with them. We allow them to affect our lives.

Why?

What's different about them?

You have people like this in your life. And you've had people like this in your life.

What makes that difference?

The businesses they build, the teams they coach, the families they raise... You walk in the door and can tell almost immediately. The culture, the level of service, the customer experience. The love. They are CEO's, teachers, coaches, non-profit leaders, front-line supervisors. We've been interviewing some of the most captivating leaders you can imagine.

Jim quit his job and today, he spends a lot of time in and out of prison... visiting prisoners. When he quit his job, he took a year off to visit the poorest people on the planet, spent a summer with Mother Teresa, and then returned home to become CEO of several companies. And he started orphanages in Guatemala. He was not a servant leader by birth. He allowed some experiences (and Mother Teresa's "performance review") to change him.

Mimi helped 25,000 people recover from drug addiction and a life in and out of prison (not visiting!). She leads one of the world's most successful non-profits and leaves a ripple effect on every person who crosses her path.

Lynn is a mom who lost a teenage son. She channeled the massive and heart-wrenching pain from that loss into a way to serve other parents who lost a child and young kids who lost a sibling. Parents and kids told me that she saved their lives, their marriages, their families. Gave them hope. Gave them a reason to get up in the morning. Gave them something they didn't think they could ever have again.

How do these "Servant Leaders" do it? And why?

BTW, if you know someone you think we should talk to for the book & interview series, please DM me. Thanks. Keep leading and serving!

You Have A Choice:

Invest in developing servant leaders... or don't.
Develop leaders through a 10x return on investment process with immediate measurable results... or throw money at trainings heavy on theory and light on application.
Leverage a proven process... or experiment with building your own.
Partner with a coach who has been there and made it happen over and over... or hire facilitators who might not earn the trust of your team.
Get guaranteed results... or get nice booklets and posters to hang on the walls, memorabilia from yet another program of the month.

When we develop leaders, we change lives!

...OR continue on the same path and hope that things will get better on their own.
