Working Together: A Lesson in Servant Leadership

• In Event: From Despair to Hope: Prophetic Leadership in Turbulent Times

Short Description

One day in 2015, a middle school boy brought a gun to class. Resolved peaceably, Christine Schoenherr, the head of Four Conner Montessori School, credits this event with helping her school enhance their culture of responsibility. Using Robert Greenleaf’s concept of servant leadership, students and teachers worked together to develop a series of workshops that turned these ideas into real-life experiences.
