In this book, we report evaluation findings based on different service leadership subjects and programs. Generally speaking, the reported findings replicated the previous evaluation findings of the Service Leadership Education Initiatives. These findings consistently and strongly suggest that these initiatives can help to promote service leadership attributes in young people. To build up the academic and professional foundation of service leadership education, these evaluation initiatives are very important. When China is gradually evolving to service economy, we earnestly hope that young people can be nurtured to be effective service leaders who possess competence, character and care.
