to Post-Graduation Life There are many leadership traits necessary
for effective principled leadership in an organization. Servant
Leadership is a style that wherein the leader places the primary
interest on meeting the needs of the followers and gaining their
trust and respect (Greenleaf, 1970). When leaders hold followers in
high regard, the use of power and authority is unnecessary as
followers will give the leader consent to lead (Greenleaf, 1970).
Servant leaders should act in the best interest of their followers,
always making valid attempts to assess and gain an understanding of
their needs (Greenleaf, 1970). 11 Greenleaf, R.K. (1970). The

Slide 12 FOR TRAINING USE ONLY Honor Duty Respect 12 "The character
that takes command in moments of crucial choices has already been
determined by a thousand other choices made earlier in seemingly
unimportant moments. It has been determined by all the 'little'
choices of the past--by all those times when the voice of
conscience was at war with the voice of temptation, [which was]
whispering the lie that 'it really doesn't matter.' It has been
determined by all the day-to-day decisions made when life seemed
easy and crises seemed far away ~ President Ronald Reagan Reagan,
R. W. (1993). The character that takes command. Retrieved from
