SERVANT LEADERSHIP: FROM SELF TO OTHERS: A CYCLE OF AESTHETIC SERVICE
Abstract The author is an undergraduate student at “ Purdue University in the American Midwest, far away from the familiar home on the other side of the globe.” She details her creation of “Leadership Enhancement Organization (LEO), a student‐led community at Purdue.” She founded this organization “to foster Servant Leadership among undergraduates.” She notes that the term servant leadership “was coined by the late visionary Robert K. Greenleaf, in 1970. In October 2024, I was honored to go to New York to accept the Servant Leader Youth Exemplars Award from the Robert K. Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership.” She describes what she calls The Aesthetic Cycle of Service and the Aesthetics of Resonant Consensus, “which I’ve seen come alive through my work at LEO, and which together illustrate how individual perception and collective recognition intertwine in a continuous loop, cultivating meaning, dignity, and a sense of belonging within human systems.”
