A servant leader is a manager who puts the needs of others before their own. This style of leadership is growing in popularity and has been shown to enhance outcomes. There are ten principles that are essential for the success of servant leaders. These include empathy, attentiveness, and influence, among others.

Empathy is the capacity to comprehend and experience another's emotions. Understanding their beliefs and perspectives is also required.

This is an essential ability for effective leadership. It facilitates understanding, reduces misunderstandings, and strengthens relationships.

Listening is the ability to analyze verbal and nonverbal communication in order to comprehend what others are saying. Effective listening can help you develop relationships with others and gain a deeper understanding of their beliefs and perspectives.

Active listening can also enhance your health and well-being as a whole. Daniel M Hurt believes that it can also boost confidence, foster rapport, and foster trust.

Persuasion is a type of communication that involves altering the beliefs, behaviors, and attitudes of others. It occurs frequently in interpersonal and familial relationships, as well as in professional settings.

Service-oriented leaders use persuasion to influence decision-making and motivate team members. They make logical arguments that elicit strong positive emotions from their followers and work to develop team consensus.

Self-awareness is the capacity to examine oneself and reflect on one's emotions and actions. It also involves being aware of how your actions affect others. Self-awareness empowers servant leaders to analyze situations objectively and make decisions based on a variety of perspectives. It also assists them in comprehending issues concerning values, work ethics, and authority.
