A Higher Standard of Leadership Part 2 of 3

1. Focus on responsibility not rights
[lead by example by focusing on what we are called to do to make this world a better place]

2. Emphasis on values-based service
[put your gifts in service to the greater world, it is the only way they and you are actualized, fulfilled]

3. Commit to personal service
[start from the inside out: family, friends, community]

4. Understand the needs of those you wish to serve
[dedicate time for personal observation, commit yourself to seeking truth, and identify (empathize) with people]

5. Reconcile power with service
[create harmony by tempering power entrusted to you and continually dedicating it for the greater good]
