Servant Leadership and Growing a Community of Trust
There is a profound difference between those who think of a business as a money machine and those who think of it as an inclusive community with a shared purpose, the by-product of which is to collectively create profit. The first definition dehumanizes people. The second acknowledges the significance of creating a shared trust, which nurtures an enduring community. In this module, we will learn some fun and effective ways to begin to develop prolonged trust within our communities. (Approx. 20 min., includes a DVD of a Southwest Airlines Heroes of the Heart Celebration)

"Ann McGee-Cooper teaches us that 'work' and 'drudgery' are not synonymous. She shows how a job can be a source of fellowship, zest, pride, fun, and individual expression. If we follow her precepts, we will return home refreshed, not jaded, and inspired rather than debilitated, at the end of our 'fun day,' not our 'work day.' We will also collectively be a more productive, competitive, and healthy society. I believe in what she says." Herb Kelleher
