As leaders, navigating the balance between serving our vision and supporting those who are integral to its success can be a delicate line to walk. When we stand as warriors, with strong backs and open hearts, the seeds of servant leadership are planted. As servant leaders, we create safe, structured containers to bear witness without judgement, allowing for us to build and create meaningful connections. It is in the opening of ourselves to true genuine acts of compassion, that an enhanced sense of resiliency to weather the storms of our lives is nurtured and strengthened.
