Bosses and boundaries

I recently read a post about bosses calling employees after hours. As a manager with a servant leadership style I often call employees after hours to do the following: to get their opinion and perspective before making a decision that may impact them, to check on them to make sure they’re okay and offer support if I know they’re struggling with something in their personal life, and to brainstorm ideas where I know they’ll feel valued for giving input- this is especially true when I know they feel passionate about bringing change to the organization as a whole. Does this community consider this an overreach on the part of management?
