But argue from the base of an appreciation of the nature of legitimate power and greatness. Legitimate power, like power in any circumstance, is the ability to bring about or prevent change. But legitimate, properly constituted power would speak to anyone concerned with exercising their power appropriately and achieving greatness, properly understood, to be, as Ghandi once said, the change you want to see happen. Be the change you are calling for in your complaints, your dreams, and your prayers. If you want change, be the change you are looking for.
All power is relational.
You may mistakenly think of power as something you possess, something you can carry or move around to do your bidding. No, power is relational. If the relational empowerment is withdrawn, there is no power. For example, you are empowering me at this moment to preach. In the opening chapter of Servant Leadership, Greenleaf writes of The Servant as Leader.
