On servant leadership, serving the greater good is the only legitimate form of leadership. But that doesn’t mean being servile to incompetence. That goes against the greater good. A leader defining what represents competence in this situation seems appropriate to me.

You can’t serve your way to success you are serving people with misaligned agendas or whom are not capable of doing their job. You serve the people who are serving the organisation. You don’t ask “what do you need” to a person who is apparently not even working on the same goals that the organisation needs to address. That is just fuelling the misguided path.
