A Call to Meaningful Change
What if service wasn’t just about giving—but about empowering others to stand on their own? That’s the heart of The Dignity of Service: The Power of Social Entrepreneurship by Nathan W. McKie Sr. This book opens a conversation about what it truly means to help people and how servant leadership, combined with business innovation, can transform lives from the ground up. It’s a refreshing reminder that the best way to serve isn’t through charity alone, but through creating lasting opportunities for others to thrive.
McKie and his co-author, Jeff, take readers into the realities of rebuilding communities—especially after the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic. They share not just theories, but hard-earned insights, practical solutions, and a sincere belief that dignity comes from purpose. This isn’t a book about quick fixes—it’s a guide for anyone who wants to be part of something that changes lives for good.
