What is servant leadership? Is it a philosophy, or a theory, or a set of values, or a list of characteristics, or a series of practices—or some combination of all of these things? Professor Stephen Prosser addresses these questions in the context of the literature and research on servant leadership in the new essay Servant Leadership: More Philosophy, Less Theory. After reviewing the ways in which people try to describe and explain leadership, he provides six reasons why servant leadership is a philosophy, not a theory, concerning service and the practice of leadership. The essay is concise, and designed for the practitioner. To buy copies of the essay, click here.

Greenleaf Center Retreats
Greenleaf Center retreats offer the 'me' time we all need. For most of us, taking time out for ourselves is something that can't be done because there just aren't enough hours in a day. With soccer practices and work projects, taking the time out to reflect and renew seems impossible. Well, it's not! Participating in Greenleaf retreats are one way to achieve the 'me' time we all need to be productive in our daily lives. The retreats offer an atmosphere conducive to relaxation, reflection, and expression. So, if you're looking for the opportunity to reconnect with your inner self, a retreat is the place you need to be. The Center will be offering retreats twice each year - Fall and Spring. Please join us! If you have any questions regarding retreats, please feel free to contact the Greenleaf Center.
