Servant Leadership - Not Everyone’s Cup of Tea

A black-and-white cartoon showing a manager serving tea in a cafeteria while employees gossip, saying “Servant leadership is just not his cup of tea.”

Leadership, like tea, comes in many flavors — but not everyone enjoys the “servant” blend.


This cartoon pokes fun at one of the most talked - about leadership philosophies of our time: servant leadership.


It’s that noble idea where leaders serve first, lead second — except in many workplaces, it’s easier to preach than to pour.


Our well-meaning boss here might be serving tea, but his team clearly isn’t buying it. Because sometimes, humility feels more like a PR exercise than a practice.


The humor lies in the gap — between the talk of empathy and the taste of authenticity.


If this one made you smile, sip another ☕ with more takes on Leadership, or explore Culture for more workplace ironies brewed daily.
