John Maxwell: 我从年轻时就开始了领导生涯,起初我的领导方式是以自我为中心,专注于让别人帮助我实现目标。后来,我意识到应该改变策略,去帮助别人实现他们的目标。这种转变彻底改变了我的领导方式。 服务他人教会我重视他人,从“他们需要我”的观念转变为“我需要他们”。我越服务他人,就越重视他们,他们也为我带来了更多价值。 服务他人也教会我重视团队合作。过去,我独自思考和制定计划,后来意识到与团队分享想法可以使想法变得更好。 最后,服务他人让我从追求成功转向追求意义,并从中获得极大的满足感。通过服务他人,我获得了满足感,因为我开始过一种有意义的生活,而不是只为自己而活。我通过了解人们的需求并满足这些需求来服务他人,例如通过写作书籍。我通过帮助人们建立关系、装备他人、培养积极的态度和领导能力来服务他人。我通过提问、倾听和培养同理心来了解人们的需求,并通过行动来满足这些需求。我通过以身作则来激励我的团队服务他人。服务他人让我更有价值感和满足感。 Mark Cole: 我观察到John Maxwell以及其他杰出的服务型领导者,他们之所以能够服务他人,是因为他们发自内心地重视他人。这种重视他人,反过来又增强了他们为他人创造价值的能力。 高尚的领导力是为他人利益而领导,而不是为了从他们那里获得利益。真正地服务他人,而不是为了达到自己的目的,会带来意想不到的快乐和满足感。 时间会揭示一个人的真实动机,从而判断他们是否真正地服务他人。John Maxwell教会我,即使知道某人的决定是错误的,也要给予祝福,并相信每个人都有未被发现的潜能。我应该庆祝我无法看到的潜能,而不是试图强迫别人接受我所能看到的潜能。我过去常常用我看到的优势来压制别人,而不是用它来服务别人。John Maxwell教会我,服务他人的方式和服务他人的结果一样重要。 通过非营利工作,我获得了比盈利工作更大的满足感。在非营利工作中,帮助那些无法回报的人,让我感受到更大的意义和满足感。看到我的团队在没有我的情况下继续服务他人,让我感到非常满足。 Chris Robinson: 我将服务他人融入我的生活和领导方式中,通过帮助他人获得他们无法独自获得的经验来增加价值。我从追求个人成功转变为帮助他人成功,这使我的价值和影响力都得到了提升。我将帮助他人晋升为管理人员作为我的目标,这提高了我的销售业绩和领导力。服务他人是一种丰盛的心态,它会带来积极的回报。 看到服务型领导力代代相传,让我感到非常满足。无私地服务他人,并看到他们也去服务他人,会带来极大的满足感。
