Servant leadership is a leadership philosophy where the leader puts the needs of their team members first and serves them while still achieving great results. Incorporating teachings from Kundalini yoga into your leadership style can help you cultivate these principles more easily.
The foundation of servant leadership rests on ten principles created by Robert K. Greenleaf in the 1970s:
Incorporating teachings from Kundalini Yoga into your leadership practices can support you in developing the principles necessary for successful servant-leadership outcomes.
Meditation is one of the most powerful tools provided by Kundalini Yoga which helps practitioners develop awareness, focus, and concentration skills necessary for any type of management role. Pranayama techniques such as alternate nostril breathing, single nostril breathing, or humming breath can improve listening skills, increase focus, reduce stress, and build resilience.
Through Kundalini Yoga’s physical postures (asanas), leaders can prepare their bodies to withstand the pressures of leadership responsibilities. Maintaining a daily kundalini yoga practice has proven beneficial for leaders seeking mental clarity and emotional intelligence.
Leading with a service-first mindset demonstrates empathy, builds trust among team members, and creates an environment where everyone feels valued. By embracing this philosophy, leaders foster employee engagement & productivity while building stronger relationships with their team.
In conclusion, servant leadership offers an effective approach to inspiring change in any organization by putting people first. Combining this approach with Kundalini Yoga teachings provides practitioners with unique tools to cultivate inner strength - leading from compassion.
Let's embrace our role as 'servant leaders' by utilizing these powerful philosophies and start creating positive change today!
