SERVANT LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE
Building Servant Leaders to Transform Organizations
Servant Leadership is a growing global movement that has touched worldwide organizations interested in being sustainable and profitable as well as making a positive difference in the lives of their employees and communities.
Servant Leadership Institute, an affiliate of Datron World Communications, Inc., has served such prestigious organizations as the United States Military Academy at West Point, Tri-City Hospital in Vista, Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego, and the international Harvest Foundation. We do this by:
- INSPIRING LEADERS THROUGH MENTORING AND CONSULTATION
Servant Leadership Institute (SLI) is in the business of leadership development. It is what we do. It is our passion that drives us to create leaders who value leading “for the sake of others,” instead of leading for self-serving motives. We teach leaders one-on-one or in groups how to lead themselves before they can lead others. The best leaders in the world know how to serve rather than be served.
- EQUIPPING TEAMS THROUGH TRAINING AND PRODUCTS
SLI utilizes nationally noted authors and experienced trainers who understand the goal is more than information; the goal is incarnation of the principles of servant leadership that change cultures within organizations. Our many books and workbooks provide a valuable lifelong tool for many as they attend our training sessions.
- ENCOURAGING ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH CONFERENCES AND EVENTS
SLI hosts regular conferences and special events throughout the year in various parts of the world. We provide organizations an opportunity for their teams to learn more about Servant Leadership. Nationally noted speakers and authors are featured, along with informative and practical workshops.
Perhaps today is the day to follow a new way of leadership that works within any team environment. For more information about Servant Leadership Institute, contact our team at (760) 597-3796 servantleadership@dtwc.com

Servant Leadership
“Equip and Inspire Those We Influence”
By Tony Baron, Ph.D.
7 Practices of Servant Leaders
- 1. Servant Leaders seek lasting change instead of system relief.
2. Servant Leaders create intimate relationships instead of dependent relationships.
3. Servant Leaders persevere with a non-anxious presence knowing that direct reaction, deliberate resistance and destructive rumors are evidences of one’s effectiveness.
4. Servant Leaders inspire personal responsibility instead of encouraging perceived victims.
5. Servant Leaders invest in motivated people instead of adapting to troubled people.
6. Servant Leaders see troubles as the heart of preexisting anxiety instead of seeing troubles as the origin of anxiety.
7. Servant Leaders live to the applause of one as opposed to the applause of many.

Art, as chief executive officer, also sees himself in the important role of cultural architect within Datron. The recent book, The Art of Servant Leadership, explains his story of success. Art is committed to sharing his Datron story to as many corporate leaders as possible so that they too can move from “good to great to even a greater impact” for the sake of others.
