Building the next generation of servant leaders

The best work relationships are partnerships. They require collaboration between the leader and their people regarding communication, working style, feedback, direction, and support. But many leaders become so focused on meeting the organisation’s needs that they lose sight of the needs and aspirations of their people.

Employees are engaged and productive when leaders care for their people and help them develop. Blanchard’s Servant Leadership Essentials course teaches leaders how to build trust, listen, and give and receive feedback in ways that bring out the best in their people.

Leadership that inspires today’s workforce to achieve their potential

Servant leadership is a better way to lead—and one that leads to higher levels of engagement, performance, and human satisfaction. Blanchard’s Servant Leadership Essentials course helps leaders take ownership of the process and actively partner with their people. There is a sense of accountability for the successful performance of others. The servant leader learns to align the individual’s purpose and role with organisational strategies. Leaders learn how to guide actions, add energy, and provide long-term perspective.

Delivery Options to Meet Your Needs

Servant Leadership can be delivered as virtual sessions and as part of a learning journey so leaders can learn how to think differently about leadership’s purpose and bring out the best in their people.

Cultivate A Servant Leadership Mindset and Skillset

The most effective leaders recognise that leadership is not about them, and that the success of their people fuels their success. Servant leaders constantly try to find out what their people need to succeed. They want to make a difference in the lives of their people and, in the process, benefit the organisation. When team members believe their leader has their best interests at heart, performance improves by leaps and bounds.
