Greenleaf Center

Today we visited the Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership in Westfeild, IN. This is the headquarters for the Servant Leadership that was started by Robert Greenleaf. We had a graduate student from DePauw University, who had been an intern there before, called Courtney who was our group facilitator for the day. She was the one who got us talking and thinking about what it means to be a servant leader and what that means to us.

Some of the things that got me thinking the most was about my self awareness that correlate with the definition of a servant leader. It got me thinking about the things that I can do now and back home that will help me to become more like a servant leader. Some of these things include how I can put others first and keep my personal benefits second. This is just one aspect that all of us thought about critically of ourselves and the things that we can do as college students and of people of privilege.
