GEORGE FOX TALKS

In this episode, Dave Tussing talks with director of Evangelical Friends Mission Stan Leach about servant leadership. How does a focus on the value of people affect the way an organization functions? What does it look like to share power in a servant leadership model, and how is conflict dealt with when humility is the rule? Hint: it all has a lot to do with listening.
