description: In this highly personal book, William B. Turner of Columbus, Georgia, chronicles his life and the spiritual journey that led him to embrace the concept of servant leadership. The journey began on his eighth birthday when his grandfather, industrialist W. C. Bradley, anointed him the head of two large corporations. He resisted the expectations that were set upon him and was led by the examples of his predecessors (grandfather and father) and by God to adopt the principle of servant leadership. William Turners contribution of servant leadership, which is based on spirit-filled love, is the hope of the future because it leads to God. Fortune Magazine named Synovus Financial Corporation the Best Place to Work in America. More important than the accolades he and his associates and companies have received, however, is the daily evidence of people caring about one another and of peoples creativity being unleashed as they explore who they are and what they can do in the workplace. Within these pages you will walk through the tapestry of Turners journey that threads together family, church, business, and community to create a pattern for living and practicing servant leadership.
