“The Power of Humility” by Yvonne Lumsden-Dill
What is affecting your bottom line?
What is your leadership/management style at work?
Which style brings the most results in the workplace – command and control or compassion?
People asset management – developing, sustaining and retaining quality employees – is essential to a company’s success.
Many companies focus on the triple bottom line (TBL), which is considered social, environmental and financial. Otherwise termed, “people, planet and profit”. TBL is regarded as the “three pillars of sustainability”. From a social perspective, servant-led companies tend to be more successful in the long run because “servant leadership” is a philosophy based on empathy rather than power plays. But we need to understand humility as an underlying principle of servant leadership. In fact, humility has a definitive role in business as Robert Max Wideman, researcher, author and project management expert, says: “Humility can contribute to the bottom line.”
“The Power of Humility” is about one person’s journey and lessons learned and still learning in the difference between leadership and management. One learns the difference between being proud and having false pride; literature tells us “pride goes before a fall”. I will share the key attributes of servant leadership and why they are beneficial for success in the workplace. I will also talk about how cultural influences color our perception of leadership as authority and control.
If you are interested in learning how to keep your competitive edge, join us to discover why concern with the success of all stakeholders is a key element of servant leadership and leads to your own success.
