Hello TIPS listeners! Join Ashlie and Gilbert as they chat with Dr. Kent Schlichtemeier, Director of Concordia University Irvine’s Servant Leadership Institute (SLI), professor, author, and former coach. Dr. Schlichtemeier emphasizes how servant leadership is a conscious, daily decision and that leaders are remembered for how they make people feel. He discusses how CUI’s SLI aims to instill core virtues like humility, honesty, compassion, and courage to shift focus from self to others. A crucial aspect he highlights is empowerment, where leaders move from controlling to trusting and uplifting their teams, sharing compelling examples from his own experiences. Don't miss Dr. Schlichtemeier’s practical tips for emerging leaders. Let’s get started!
