Some people say servant leaders are milquetoast. They’re weak. They’re all kumbaya, campfires, and group hugs. 

I’m here to tell you that nothing could be further from the truth.

Servant leaders are the bravest, most aspirational leaders you will ever meet. 

Servant leaders understand that the role of the leader is not to hog the spotlight. They have chosen to hold themselves to the highest of standards to take their teams to the bravest of destinations. 

And they know it goes beyond slogans and talk. It’s integrated in every action, every decision.

This is a huge, difficult role to play. But it is also the role that creates the conditions for people to operate at peak performance. 

Imagine the power of an organization in which every single person knows what motivates them to get up early every day and go to work excited for the opportunities ahead. 

What’s the secret to building such a powerful organization? The Dare to Serve Leadership Framework I share in this course.

I produced this course in partnership with Berrett-Koehler Publishers to challenge leaders to create the conditions to achieve superior performance themselves, their teams, and their organizations. 

Over the course of five weeks, we will come together to do this courageous work of personal and organizational transformation. With a combination of planning exercises and self-reflective work, I will guide you to develop your central core purpose, vision, and set of how-we-do-business principles—and show you how to apply them in real life.

Maybe you’re a new manager and you don’t have a good role model or mentor, or you’re already running a large team but it isn’t performing as well as you know it can.

Whatever your experience, you know it’s time. Join me.

Former CEO of Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc.

Cheryl Bachelder is a passionate, purpose-led business leader known for her crisp strategic thinking, a franchisee-focused approach, and superior financial performance. Guided by the servant leadership thinking of Robert Greenleaf, she believes highly caring, collaborative leaders with big ambitions for the enterprise, not themselves, generate the conditions for people to perform their best work.  

Cheryl served as CEO of Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., from 2007 to 2017. The story of Popeyes’ success is chronicled in her book Dare to Serve: How to Drive Superior Results by Serving Others. During her tenure, Popeyes’ stock price grew from $11 to $64, at which time the board sold the company to Restaurant Brands International Inc. for $1.8 billion, or $79 per share, in March 2017.  

Cheryl’s earlier career included brand leadership roles at Yum! Brands, Domino’s Pizza, RJR Nabisco, the Gillette Company, and Procter & Gamble.  

Cheryl sits on the advisory board of Procter & Gamble’s franchising venture, Tide Dry Cleaners. She is a member of C200, an organization that fosters, celebrates, and advances women’s leadership in business.
