Which leadership style flips the traditional organizational hierarchy by prioritizing the growth and well-being of team members over the leader’s own power or the company's immediate bottom line?

Coined by Robert K. Greenleaf, this style focuses on the leader being a "servant first." The leader’s primary goal is to provide the team with the tools, support, and environment they need to succeed, believing that if the people grow, the organization will naturally follow.   Servant Leadership flips the traditional top-down hierarchical model by placing the leader at the base of the structure as a supporter rather than at the peak as a dictator. The primary goal of a servant leader is to serve the needs of their team members, focusing on their personal and professional growth and overall well-being. Unlike traditional styles that prioritize individual power or short-term profitability, this approach emphasizes empowerment, empathy, and building a people-first culture
