For me, the idea of leading by serving others, of helping them grow to be their best, expresses one of the core principles of leadershipâreleasing the potential in others. Service was the background track of my early corporate career in an organisation striving to do this globally.
The principles of servant leadershipâempowering others and ethical and sustainable leadershipâsit well with my spiritual values. This book has played a significant part in my journey to leading and living more consciously.Â

From Lorraine's list on leading business consciously to create a better world for all.
