There are a number of qualities that confident, servant leaders share.
1. They Admit Being Wrong
The conceited leader that proclaims his position and disregards differing points of view is a leader that will have few followers, mostly out of fear and intimidation. Typically, they know they're right, and they need you to know it too.
But truly respected servant leaders are quite secure in admitting when they're wrong and made a mistake, or don't have all the answers.
And they will back down graciously when being proven wrong. To them, it's more important to find out what is right than being right.
