Book review: The Servant: A Simple Story About the True Essence of Leadership by James C. Hunter

The Servant: A Simple Story About the True Essence of Leadership by James C. Hunter is one of the foundational books on servant leadership and has sold nearly four million copies worldwide.

It was first written in 1998 and revised in 2012 with a new introduction, which gives an overview of servant leadership and its value for our current times.

The Servant is even more relevant now than it was when first published, as it contains valuable educational information woven into a creative and enjoyable story.

You’ll find this book to be an easy read and a road to learning powerful leadership principles.

The information and perspective are pertinent to new supervisors, managers, executives, and seasoned veterans in leadership.

I recommend this book frequently because it contains interesting, fun, and readily applied information for all leaders who want to up their game and be the best leaders possible.
