Kent Keith defines servant leadership

Kent Keith, CEO of the Greenleaf Center for Servant leadership, will present a 3-hour workshop on June 27, 2009, at the Kiwanis International Convention in Nashville, Tennessee. The workshop will use as its guide Keith’s book The Case for Servant Leadership, which cites the universal importance of service, defines servant leadership, compares the power model of leadership with the service model, describes some key practices of servant-leaders and explores the meaningful lives of servant-leaders.

Keith has been focused on helping people find personal meaning since he was a college student in the 1960s. He’s the author of The Paradoxical Commandments, which he wrote when he was 19 while a sophomore at Harvard University. The Paradoxical Commandments are guidelines for finding personal meaning in the face of adversity.

Dr. Keith is also the author of "The Universal Moral Code," a set of fundamental moral principles that can be found throughout the world. The Universal Moral Code is a reminder of the meaning that each of us can find by living our values and doing what’s right.

Mr. Keith serves on the Kiwanis International Key Leader Advisory Board.
