Authentic And Servant Leadership

Improved Essays
I enjoyed reading your post on team, authentic and servant leaderships and your experience with flying with your crew. As I read your post, I agreed with how authentic leadership have roots in transformational leadership. The behaviors coincide with each other and Northhouse (2013) discussion on these leadership behaviors and theories allowed me to reflect on my past employment. As for your life example, I have experiences flying with crewmembers; however, it is with different crewmembers daily, weekly, and sometimes monthly. Being authentic and having servant leadership skills, is critical due to the fact that I fly with federal air marshals, prisoners, law enforcement officers and other crewmembers for a living.

    The dictionary defines leadership as “the action of guiding a group of people or an organization” (“Leadership” n.d.) and service as “the action of helping someone.” (“Service” n.d.).

This is a rather simple definition of servant leadership that has been questioned and analyzed by four authors, making the actual definition of servant leadership more ambiguous because of each author’s different approach to this topic.…

    My definition of leadership is very simple: leadership is having the ability to mobilize and empower a group towards a common goal. I find that with a much general definition of leadership as a base, it allows for different styles and theories to come from it. My preferred leadership style, for example, is the servant leadership model. The servant leadership model was formalized by Robert K. Greenleaf. My leadership model, as similar as it may be to that of Greenleaf's, came from home.…
