This is Robert Greenleaf's second major essay, which begins with his thesis that ôIf a better society is to be built, one that is more just and more loving, one that provides greater creative opportunity for its people, then the most open course is to raise both the capacity to serve and the very performance as servant of existing major institutions by new regenerative forces operating within them.

It is great when a classic can be written from one point of view and then turned around and made applicable to the other side of the coin. Well One!

This book dicusses the "trustee" position quite a bit. I was expecting something different. I was looking for characteristics of servant institutions, and examples of servant institutions.
