Based on your educational pamphlet regarding servant leadership, Claire, the CEO, has expressed great interest in becoming more of a servant leader herself. With her interest kindled, your new task is to identify ways that you may be better able to help her transition into acting as a servant leader.
In order to do this, you conduct interviews with several of Claire’s subordinates. You also have Claire complete a few self-assessments to gather more information about her natural personality tendencies, skills, and abilities, and current approach to leading. Below is a summary of the data you have gathered.
