Becoming the Most Powerful and Influential Leader in the World

To be a leader means to have humility, to have respect and to serve the people that we are leading. And that type of character, that type of integrity not only brings real fulfillment to our own hearts, but also has a great effect on the lives of all the people around us.
--Radhanath Swami
Jesus Christ was the true servant leader. He was not puffed up, self-important, or even prideful. As a matter of fact, from all accounts, he was humble. In addition to these qualities, he was known to be full of charity, love, virtue, pure intent, patience, and grace. What makes this so amazing is these are qualities other people testified of him, never self-aggrandizement.
It is this type of leadership that is powerful, powerful to change lives, give people hope, give people courage, and encouragement to change. This is the epitome of leadership, to cause a change in behavior.
Too many leaders make it about them, not the people they lead. These are the managers/leaders that can and should follow the Christlike principles in leadership. The sad reality is they tell themselves, "It applies to everyone but them."
In the King James Bible, we read in Mathew 7:3, "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?"
If serving is below you, leadership is beyond you.
