In his second essay, The Institution as Servant , Greenleaf wrote that “not much will change until the builders of institutions, those who have competence and strength, begin to move.” 5 He introduced the important role of board members in leading the institution toward distinction as servant. He discussed organizational structures, and argued for a team or “council of equals” instead of a single chief at the top of the organizational pyramid. He described the difference between conceptual and operating talent and discussed the challenges of large businesses, universities, and growing edge churches. Thoughts?
