MEET THEM WHERE THEY ARE
• To be effective, you must recognize some teammates/licensees may come at their work differently.Adjusting your style to fit your team’s needs shows flexibility and respect. • By understanding each person, you can help him or her commit to the organization goals in a way that fits their abilities and motivations. • Leaders who are truly engaged are less likely to find roadblocks to the success of their projects, to go the extra mile when it’s needed.

BE OPEN AND AVAILABLE
• As described by James Hunter in his book The World’s Most Powerful Leadership Principle, the servant leader makes himself or herself available to help employees when it’s needed.
Hunter wrote: “How we behave as the boss at work today affects what goes on around the dinner table in other people’s homes tonight. Anyone who has ever had a bad boss can certainly relate to what I’m talking about. I believe this is where servant leadership begins.We need to reflect on this awesome responsibility for which we signed up and recognize that our choices and behaviors are impacting lives.”
