The following individuals could all be considered servant leaders EXCEPT for
- A.
Mahatma Gandhi
- B.
Mother Theresa
- C.
Malcolm X
- D.
Martin Luther King Jr
Correct Answer
C. Malcolm XExplanation
The individuals listed, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Theresa, and Martin Luther King Jr, are all known for their selfless acts of service and their commitment to uplifting others. They embody the qualities of a servant leader, putting the needs of others before their own and working towards the betterment of society. However, Malcolm X, while a prominent figure in the civil rights movement, is not typically associated with servant leadership.

Therefore, Malcolm X does not fit the profile of a servant leader like the other individuals mentioned.Rate this question:

While it may seem like a reward by offering more variety in the job, it can also lead to increased stress and workload without any corresponding increase in pay or recognition.

If no one seconds a motion, the motion cannot be re-presented as is. This statement is least accurate because if a motion is not seconded, it cannot proceed or be re-presented.
