Management Vs Leadership
Management – is what we do ( Planning,
Budgeting, organizing, building
strategies, effecting change, problem
solving )
Leadership is
“ Who we are ! ”
About “Getting people neck up !”
Influencing people to commit to a
mission, to be all they can be.

important people, we build authority and thereby influence

Servant Leadership
• Is influencing people to contribute their
heart, mind, creativity, spirit, excellence and
their all to the team to work towards a
mutually beneficial goal.
• Is not a title. One does not have to be in
position of power to influence others to be
more enthusiastic, more committed and
more willing to be the best
• Is the willingness to extend oneself to meet
the needs of another human being
• Is about exerting influence not intimidation
• Is about building authority not power
“Anyone who wants to be a leader among you must first be the servant
If you chose to lead, you must serve” – Jesus Christ
