Will not other people take advantage of servant leadership?

As a servant leader, you're a "servant first" – you focus on the needs of others, especially team members, before you consider your own. You acknowledge other people's perspectives, give them the support they need to meet their work and personal goals, involve them in decisions where appropriate, and build a sense of community within your team. This leads to higher engagement, more trust, and stronger relationships with team members and other stakeholders. However, servant leadership is problematic in hierarchical, autocratic cultures where managers and leaders are expected to make all the decisions. Here, servant leaders may struggle to earn respect. Having said that, it depends on the culture of the organization. People will take advantage of servant leadership if they don’t have fully grasp of their position in the organization. The leader supports and hands on in every element in the organization, not so the other can sit back and relax, but to inspire and build closer relationship. To avoid being taken advantage of, a servant leader still have to be stern on applying principal to make sure they are on the right way to reach their goals.
