What to expect
Gallup recently reported that only 15% of employees in the United States are truly engaged in their workplace. Yet nearly 70% of employees say they would work harder if they felt more appreciated. Over 90% of employees surveyed believed their leadership "lacked communication skills to lead." Leaders can do better. That's why the authors sought to go beyond the laudable sentiments of the "servant leadership" movement by envisioning, creating, and testing a new leadership platform based on a set of guiding beliefs and actual day-to-day practices.
In this book, the authors share how caring leaders adroitly blend visible and subtle practices to realize the aspirational benefits of coaching and collaboration. The authors also provide insights about less frequently discussed leadership issues such as how to build an empowering network of relationships and transform pushback into progress. Anyone who wishes to craft their own distinctive, compelling, and empowering leadership style that unleashes the latent energy of people and their organizations will discover a robust and enriching framework for doing so in Leading with Care in a Tough World.
