Podcasts about Servant leadership

What if the most game-changing shift in your life is a three-letter word you've been afraid to use?In this episode of Men Talking Mindfulness, hosts Will Schneider and Jon Macaskill sit down with Jim Alling—former President of Starbucks, COO of T-Mobile USA, and CEO of TOMS—to explore how the simple word yes, paired with gritty gratitude and servant leadership, can transform the way men lead, live, and relate.Jim shares how saying yes to the right things—family, values, service, and curiosity—helped him navigate massive responsibility: tens of thousands of employees, billions in revenue, and the pressure of leading globally recognized brands. He also gets honest about the real cost of hustle culture, what burnout feels like at the top, and why the most effective leaders are often the most human.In this conversation, you'll hear:• How one mentor at Starbucks taught Jim the “power of yes”• Why he chose family and his child's health over a secure corporate path• What gritty gratitude looks like when life is hard—not polished• The difference between performative leadership and servant leadership• Why men who “have it all together” often feel empty inside• How to say yes without becoming a doormat (values, boundaries, clarity)• How humility, humor, and service kept Jim grounded across Nestlé, Starbucks, T-Mobile, and TOMSIf you're a man caught between success and burnout—or you lead people and want to make a real difference without losing your soul—this episode is for you.You'll walk away with:✅ A new understanding of yes as a doorway to purpose✅ A servant-leadership blueprint that still delivers results✅ Tools to integrate gratitude into pressure and responsibility✅ Encouragement to lead as your whole self—not just your titleSponsorPeptides for Health by Mark L.

Bobby Bosler shares a simple Christmas challenge from Mark 10:45: Jesus came not to be served, but to serve. With Christmas break and “time off,” it's easy to drift into an entitlement mindset, but Jesus' coming calls us to a different posture. This episode urges young people to make Christmas break a season of joyful, intentional ministry at home, in the church, and in the community.Topics DiscussedSnow culture shock: Wisconsin vs. the mountains of West VirginiaWhy Mark 10:45 is a “Christmas verse” in contextThe temptation of “me-first” living during breaks and holidaysEntitlement at home (parents, siblings, routines, expectations)Serving practically in your local church during Christmas events“Don't be a jerk this Christmas”: choosing humility and helpfulnessTotal surrender expressed through ministry that benefits “many”Key TakeawaysJesus had every right to be served, yet He chose to serve. Follow His example.Christmas break is a gift, not a license to drift into selfish patterns.The most encouraging thing you can bring home is a servant spirit.Serving your family and church is not “extra,” it's part of living surrendered.A Christ-centered Christmas looks like giving yourself for the good of others.

Servant Leadership—The Kind of Leadership Jesus Modeled, Lived, and TaughtScripture: Mark 10:45  “For even the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.”In Mark 10:45, Jesus reveals something revolutionary: He didn't come to be served… He came to serve. Think about that. The King of kings—the One with all authority, all power, and all glory—chose the towel over the throne, the basin over the spotlight, and the table of the broken over the recognition of the elite.Accept Jesus Today: https://youtube.com/shorts/bIwAUlz7Kg4?si=BNOhv44iLWIR4eVJIf you would like to accept Jesus into your heart today, pray this simple prayer:****God, I have sinned against You. I believe that Jesus is Your Son, who died and rose for my sake. I ask you to forgive me for my sin. I place my trust in You for salvation. I receive you as my Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, I am forgiven! Amen!"****Congratulations! You are now a child of the most high. John 1:12 says, But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. If you just prayed this prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, I welcome you to the family of God.

In dieser Episode unterhalten sich Andreas und Shahzeeb über den menschlichen Wunsch nach Ordnung/Entspannung im Kopf - der gewünschte "Default" (Standard) ist, dass unser Gehirn nicht viel arbeiten möchte. Es findet immer einen Weg effizient zu arbeiten. Das hat auch Charles Duhigg in seinem Buch "The Power of Habit" mit einem Mäuse-Experiment nachgewiesen: Auf der Suche nach Schokolade in einem Labyrinth wird das Gehirn einer Maus immer fauler, je besser sie geübt ist ("Chunking"). Und dieser Mechanismus gilt auch für uns Menschen, denn wir haben die Neigung (auch komplexe) Fragen oft mit 0 oder 1 zu beantworten, um Komplexität zu reduzieren --> Hirn-Energie zu sparen. Doch nur die wenigsten Fragen haben nur binäre Optionen, ja oder nein, machen oder nicht machen. Oft versteckt sich bei genauerem Hinschauen noch eine dritte (oder vierte) Option. Und diese lohnt es sich oft zu erkunden. Warum aber eine dritte Option oder ein Plan C nicht "die Mitte" von den Optionen A und B ist, sondern meistens ein kompletter Wechsel der Perspektive, erfahrt Ihr in dieser Folge von With People. For People.

The expression “famous last words” applies to guest Emily Haynes. “One day you will be dean of women,” an associate dorm supervisor once playfully predicted. Emily adamantly replied, “Absolutely not!” Yet the Lord steadily guided her from teaching piano into the conjectured dean of women position. She and host Dr. Matt Davis review that process. Joining the Student Life Office as a dorm supervisor in 2010, she learned the one surprising rule—every day you must laugh. Emily enjoys her work, which mainly entails counseling and discipleship, though it includes a modicum of discipline too. She explains varied aspects of the dual mentorship role of working with students and dorm supervisors. Naturally, she partners with parents as well, assuring them of attentive student care. Maranatha's supportive environment “ought to be pretty reassuring to parents,” Dr. Davis observes, “once you describe all the different things we have in place to help their students thrive.” Now a 15-year veteran, Emily insists, “The rule still applies; there is laughter every day.”

Athletics as ministry offers a great “classroom” with many teachable moments, as you will hear in this episode with guest Phil Price, MBU faculty member and assistant basketball coach. He claims to have had a “front-row seat,” spending all but seven years of his life on a Christian campus. Growing up shadowing his coaching father and later playing in multiple sports, he treasures having been mentored by Godly men. Among various topics, he and host Dr. Matt Davis review his sports involvement, the “relationship of math as a discipline and the concept of truth as a reality,” lessons of grace learned from a bicuspid aortic valve, and transition to the role of “old guy” and mentor to a younger generation.

“Success is peace of mind that is the direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.” John WoodenWe conclude our final week of our 7-week series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with five more quotes on the theme of "Success," plus one extra quote.In my quest to find a definition of success, I found that the John Wooden quote above had defined it in a way that was right in line with how I had come to feel. His definition of success was so spot-on that I chose to adopt it as mine, too. I encourage you to consider success in this same way. Your success is about how hard you try and how far you are willing to go without giving up. Many successful people have been counted out numerous times, but they refused to give up. They just doggedly persisted until they eventually achieved what they were seeking. When you do that, you will be a success every time, no matter what some scoreboard says. I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate." Both are gift books for coaches or parents to give to their senior athletes. "Inspiration for the Graduate" makes for a great graduation gift, and "Senior Salute" is a great gift to give on Senior Night or at the End-of-Season Banquet. Each book is filled with quotes based on various Team Themes that, hopefully, the coaches have talked with and worked on with their teams at some point in the season.Also, please consider becoming a supporter of the show.

Pastor Daniel and Lisa Grothe unpacked Ephesians 5 in a fresh way - reminding us that "headship" isn't hierarchy. It's Jesus-style leadership. The kind that serves first, sacrifices first and lifts others first. In a world consumed with power, Jesus calls us to something different: humility, honor and mutual lifting. Our marriage, friendships, family and community flourishes when we choose the way of Jesus.

 Jesus redefines greatness as humble service. In this message, we explore how grace frees us from striving for status and empowers us to lift others up, following Christ's example of self-giving love. 

Send us a textMission-focused leaders often prioritize compassion and team harmony—but sometimes at the expense of accountability. In this podcast, host Jay Werth and guest Chris Wong, who advises both nonprofit and for-profit organizations, discuss how leaders can hold people to standards without abandoning empathy, and how this balance improves culture, performance, and impact.

Jesus redefines greatness through humility, showing that true honor in the kingdom comes not from position but from service. His life becomes the model of sacrificial love — the Son of Man who came not to be served but to serve. What if the greatest among us are those who quietly serve others first?

In this episode of The Steward Chair, Sandy Moll, leader of Advanced Business Solutions, Jeremiah 2911 Capital, and several other ventures, shares her journey of faith-driven leadership, exploring how "chasing God, not busyness" drives meaningful, long-term success. We discuss how Sandy stewards multiple companies while working three days a week, her counter-cultural strategy of growing a business 100% through service, and why she believes "work-life balance" doesn't exist when your work is part of your life's purpose. This conversation provides actionable takeaways for leaders committed to stewardship, integrity, and impact. Key Takeaways Stewardship Through Surrender: Sandy's leadership is founded on "chasing God". She starts each day in silence, asking God for direction, which allows her to manage numerous responsibilities without being consumed by "busy-ness". Growth Through Service: Advanced Business Solutions has grown entirely through relationships and service, not traditional marketing. Sandy's focus is on serving clients well and asking, "Who else can we help?". Work-Life Integration: Sandy reframes the "work-life balance" debate. She believes that if you are doing the work God put you on earth for, it isn't separate from your life—it's an integrated part of it.

For the third time, Jesus explicitly tells His disciples He will be betrayed, condemned, mocked, flogged, and crucified, but raised on the third day. Immediately after he reminds his disciples of this, the mother of James and John asks for her sons to sit at His right and left in the kingdom. Jesus uses this "theology of glory" moment to teach the true "theology of the cross": greatness is not in being served, but in serving, for "the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."  The Rev. John Lukomski, pastor emeritus, and co-host of Wrestling with the Basics, KFUO Radio, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 20:17-34.  The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.
