Description

Servant-Leadership as a leadership philosophy is relatively new, but as a concept of living is a
timeless notion. As Transformational Leaders we inspire our followers to be leaders and moral agents of social change in their culture. This course is an examination of the foundation,
principles, and practices of servant and transformational leadership. How these two leadership philosophies can work together to help bring social and moral change to the culture around us.
