Gonzaga University has an imbedded timeless philosophy of educating the whole person with the principals of Servant Leadership to create a credential-building certificate with our Servant Leadership Program that develops the mind, body, and spirit.
"The servant-leader is servant first… It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first; perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions…The leader-first and the servant-first are two extreme types. Between them there are shadings and blends that are part of the infinite variety of human nature."
—Robert K. Greenleaf in The Servant as Leader, 1970
Through our innovative leadership development program students learn to draw strengths from their inner self; strengths that enable them to understand why Servant Leadership emphasizes core principals of listening, trust, collaboration, empathy and ethics rather than simple organizational authority. In other words, management from top to bottom, and true leadership obtained through service to others.
Students completing the following courses (12-credit hours) will receive Gonzaga's Servant Leadership Certificate:
Our Servant Leadership certificate is available fully online, and with benefits like 24/7 Tech Support, the Student Lounge forum for networking and discussion, and more personal interaction with professors, your educational experience will be fulfilling and effective. Gonzaga University employs seamless online teaching tools that combine video and other media, and you can link to a Mentors Gallery of lectures designed to provide a broader perspective of the practices in Servant Leadership.
