M.Scott Peck
Here are comments from other authors regarding Robert K. Greenleaf and servant leadership:
M. Scott Peck, in his book The Road Less Traveled, said:
"Servant Leadership is more than a concept. As far as I am concerned, it is a fact. I would simply define it by saying that any great leader, by which I also mean an ethical leader of any group, will see herself or himself primarily as a servant of that group and will act accordingly."
