Which of the following items is an example of Doug not being a servant leader? a) Doug asks his team how he can help them on a difficult project, and then follows through on their requests. b) Doug uses the last five minutes of every meeting to praise team members by highlighting what they have contributed to the project. c) Doug tells his employees that he needs to know everything that is going on in the department, especially if someone is NOT buying in to the project goals. d) Doug orders lunch to be brought in from a local restaurant, as means of thanking his employees while working on a project with a tight deadline.

C) Doug tells his employees that he needs to know everything that is going on in the department, especially if someone is NOT buying into the project goals.

Explanation:

A servant leader is a leader that believes his/her main goal is to serve the organization. Servant leaders usually value employees' contributions and generally looks for them.

If Doug wants to know who is not buying into the project goals, he is not valuing employees' contributions, he is trying to impose his own views and ideas.
