A project manager is adopting a servant leadership approach to enhance team performance. Which of the following actions best exemplifies this leadership style?
Prioritizing the removal of obstacles for the team and fostering an inclusive environment where all members feel valued.
Focusing primarily on tracking project metrics and reporting status updates to senior management.
Delegating all decision-making authority to the team without providing ongoing guidance or support.
Issuing detailed instructions for all tasks and closely monitoring every step of the execution to ensure quality.
The correct answer is that a servant leader prioritizes removing obstacles and fostering an inclusive environment. Servant leadership is centered on serving the team first by understanding their needs, supporting their growth, and removing any impediments that hinder their progress. This approach creates a supportive and inclusive culture where team members feel valued and empowered, leading to higher engagement and performance. Issuing detailed instructions represents a directive style, delegating without support is a laissez-faire approach, and focusing solely on metrics neglects the people-centric focus of servant leadership.
