Controlling Leadership Versus Servant Leadership

Welcome to the ‘Controlling Leadership Versus Servant Leadership’ video lesson meant to cover how servant leadership compares to the command-and-control style of leadership. This lesson is the last of three in the ‘Leveraging Servant Leadership for Your Team’ video course, which is meant to describe to leaders the benefits of a serving mindset for securing the success of their teams. By juxtaposing the command-and-control approach with the servant leadership style, learners will see how servant leaders work hard for their employees—rather than simply for themselves. For example, while controlling leaders want employees to listen to them, servant leaders are concerned with listening to what others have to say.
