The Servant Leadership School of Greensboro
The Servant Leadership School of Greensboro invites students to a deeper relationship with God and with others in community, as we explore both an inward journey of personal transformation and an outward journey of discerning our own particular “call” and giving expression to some form of life-giving service in the world. Since 1992, we have welcomed participants from a wide variety of churches and organizations. We have supported persons called to serve in ministries of compassion, justice, and the alleviation of human suffering, as well as those called to practice servant leadership in their daily life and work, bringing new life to relationships, businesses, groups and organizations of all kinds.
A core belief of our school is that every church in the world, by nature, is called to prepare servant leaders to follow Jesus Christ and serve God’s dream for a transformed world.
Our hope is to nurture a generation of Christian leadership which will bring renewal to our churches, create life-giving alternatives in the workplace, call forth creative new ministries to serve our community, and help to shape our future in accordance with God’s dream.
Our core classes represent the essential ideas of servant leadership and are offered on a rotating basis in a ten-week format. Servant Leadership 1 is a prerequisite for these Core classes and is offered every term. Beyond our Core Curriculum, other classes and workshops are open to all without any prerequisites. Our Core Curriculum includes the following classes:
Servant Leadership 1: Foundations for Growth and Transformation
Communion: Prayer and the Journey Inward
Community: Relationships Transformed and Transforming
Compassion: Awakening the Heart to Humanity
Call: Discerning Our Piece of God’s Dream
Money: From Cultural Addiction to Spiritual Freedom

Companion Classes, workshops and other special events complement these essential concepts. They are open to all persons without prerequisite.
Our PracticesThe content of servant leadership, as we teach it, is integrated through three central “practices” embodied in and through our daily living:
