Creating a People-First 24-Hour Economy: Servant Leadership Strategies That Work

With the world going beyond 9-to-5 timings, most people think that it’s a good thing, but others argue that it might be draining. But what if we tell you that you can build an economy that hums through the night without draining the people who power it? Consumer habits are shifting towards 24/7 convenience, and the idea of a 24-hour economy—one where services, retail, logistics, and tech operate round-the-clock—is becoming less of a concept and more of a reality.

But the question is: how can we maintain constant operations without burning out employees, eroding trust, or isolating communities?

So, how would you do that?

The answer is simple: Servant Leadership.

It simply means a different type of leadership – the one that puts people first.

Today, we are going to explore how servant leadership can shape a healthy, human-focused 24-hour economy — and why this approach may be the only sustainable path forward.
