Spears <p/>I found <i>Servant Leadership in Action</i> to be an enjoyable collection of essays that kept me interested in the subject of servant leadership regardless of where I was in the book. Blanchard and Broadwell did a nice job setting up the book's structure and dividing the essays into six parts/sections, starting with describing the basic aspects of servant leadership and ending with showing the readers how servant leadership can dramatically impact both results and human satisfaction in organizations. The essays are interesting and varied enough that you can skip around, reading what interests you, and still learn about servant leadership. If you like reading about servant leadership and do not mind a sprinkle of religious stories, then I think you will really enjoy this book. -<i><b>Steve Nguyen, Ph.D. Leadership + Talent Development Advisor, Workplace Psychology</b> <p/></i><br><i></i>Renowned expert Ken Blanchard with Renee Broadwell have assembled the insights of dozens of successful leaders in their new book <i>Servant Leadership In Action</i>.
