What we are going to talk about Servant Leadership & Adaptive Problem Solving 󾠮 What are they? 󾠯 H ow do I incorporate them? @rabbigreenberg

#1 Servant Leadership

“Servant leadership is all about making the goals clear and then rolling your sleeves up and doing whatever it takes to help people win. In that situation, they don’t work for you; you work for them. “ Ken Blanchard @rabbigreenberg

in other words…

@rabbigreenberg

and another perspective…

Maimonides ‫וכל העוסק בצרכי רבים‬ ‫כעוסק בדברי תורה‬ And all who engage in the needs of the community, it is like they are engaged in the words of the Torah. @rabbigreenberg

Teaching != Preaching @rabbigreenberg

What do the people in my community need to know? @rabbigreenberg

“ Redirecting sunlight on the earth to the moon gives you enough light so that all of humanity can see.” Dr. Mary Lou Jepsen @rabbigreenberg

and, also…

‫א׳‬:‫ב׳‬:‫רש”י על שמות י״ב‬ (‫ הֶ ְראָהוּ ְל ָבנָה בְּחִ דּוּשָׁ הּ ו ְאָמַ ר לוֹ‬.‫א( החדש הזה‬ ‫ב׳‬-‫א׳‬:‫שמות י״ב‬ ‫))מכילתא‬.

Find time for regular renewal @rabbigreenberg

#2 Adaptive Problem Solving

The Marsh mallow Test @rabbigreenberg

A Question Leads to another question @rabbigreenberg

A Technical Problem is not always solved by a technical solution @rabbigreenberg

Wrapping It Up Servant Leadership ● ● ● You work for the community Teaching > Preaching Be the moon ○ Reflect the light of others ○ Renew yourself regularly Adaptive Problem Solving ● ● ● Breath before responding Answer questions with questions Explore the underlying problem (that which does not present itself) @rabbigreenberg
