    The Ten Characteristics of Servant-Leaders

  1. Listening (others; self; reflection)
  2. Empathy (recognizing, accepting uniqueness in people)
  3. Healing (transformation and integration of self and others)
  4. Awareness (general, esp. self-awareness)
  5. Persuasion (rather than use of authority)
  6. Conceptualization (think the future; dream great dreams; beyond every day reality)
  7. Foresight (learning from the past, realities of the present; consequences of decision)
  8. Stewardship (holding something in trust for another)
  9. Commitment to growth of people (each individual within the organization)
  10. Building community (within the organization)
