This chapter outlines the significance of the development of interprofessional education and practice in a community environment for Moi University in Kenya. This training of health professionals is for community work, while placing emphasis on health promotion and preventative care as described by Westberg (1999) and Godfrey et al. (2000). A community leadership approach was used along with evidence of leadership coming from the students. In both instances we are reminded of the servant-leadership model as described in practice by Neill et al. (2007). The concept of the servant-leader was developed by Robert K. Greenleaf, an American essayist, in 1970 in his book, The servant as leader.
