To my way of thinking, part of the servant leader mentality is that of the reluctant leader. The reluctant leader is a person who assumes a leadership role only when necessary or when it seems to be the most logical serving choice. The reluctant leader takes action and leads when to do otherwise would be self-serving. There are indeed times and situations where it would seem easier to remain silent and withdrawn. Those are the moments when the reluctant leader makes the decision to rise up.
