Serving the People You Lead In Order to Build and Develop Them
Servant leadership can seem like a contradicting term, but it is becoming a very popular tool in many businesses. Servant leadership is a philosophy that involves focusing on others (i.e. your employees) and focusing on their success, and in turn, building better professional relationships that can benefit both manager and employee. Servant leadership shows that managers can be great leaders while boosting their employee’s confidence and furthering their success at the same time.
This course will give us the opportunity to examine what is leadership, how one gets involved, what does leadership mean, how does one become a leader and how does one become a servant leader. A servant leader is a servant first. In business or any organization, servant leadership prioritizes the needs, personal goals, and success of its employees. It is done to promote better working and personal relationships between employees and management to create an ideal working environment.
This course involves a change in mindset for most managers. Applying servant leadership empowers managers to improve their leadership skills while simultaneously improving employee confidence and boosting their career development chances. With the “Servant Leadership” course, participants will discover the specifics of how servant leadership works and how it can benefit both leaders and employees!

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
