Throughout history, servant leadership is valuable theory to enact change within society. From Gandhi to Martin Luther King, Jr., servant leadership highlights that a leader's greatness may depend upon the way in which the leader serves his or her subordinates. With servant leadership, a leader transforms into a guide or teacher for subordinates, in turn creating subordinate autonomy and ownership in work. As a leader, empowering your subordinates and cultivating a vested interest in work might be the most essential components to develop for effective, servant leadership.
