Abstract: This article presents the philosophy of servant leadership's cycle of benefit, a theoretical concept that emerged from existing servant leadership literature.The purpose of this work was to identify the cycle of benefit stemming from the leader-follower relationship in which the servant leader realizes tangible and intangible benefits from serving followers.To construct the concept, the author utilized inductive logic with a secondary research design.This work builds upon the argument for the practice of servant leadership by explaining why being a servant leader secondarily serves the self-interest of the one who serves.
