Using experiences at Memorial University of Newfoundland as a basis, this essay suggests that leadership should be an expectation of professional academics in all the categories of their work, namely teaching, research and service. The desirability of developing the leadership of service in particular is advanced as an appropriate expectation for faculty members’ career progress. Developing a general leadership ethos is both philosophically appropriate and practically advantageous in collegial organisations.
