The pope and the CEO

What do the Pope and a CEO have in common?
The best managers in my experience have been servant leaders. These are the leaders that people will follow, admire and try to emulate. I have a love in my heart for people who have the courage to live that type of leadership style. I was reading an article from Zenit and the following quote just struck a chord:
" if you're a manager or CEO of a business, you have this great opportunity and responsibility that you lead a group of people that are continuing to create the world"

The manager has the distinct honor and responsibility to enable the people they lead into that great unknown. If businesses are to be led successfully with the employees fully invested in the company's success then servant leadership will be the way to engender that kind of success.
