A Samoan proverb was recently shared with us: "o le ala i le pule o le tautua." It translates as, "The pathway to leadership is through service." On this episode, we're joined by Matt Hawkins, Administrative Services Director of Polk County. With colleague Kasha Coombs, we dive into the concept of servant leadership--an idea that is much easier to discuss than actually apply. We talk about its benefits as well as its challenges and even potential failures. Your understanding of servant leadership will be expanded, and maybe even challenged, in this episode.
