CSN Book Club: The Art of Caring Leadership (provide your own book)  (back)
 
Description:
Discover Your Personal Leadership Style and the Actions You Can Take to Uplift and Engage Those You Lead.

If your people know you care about them, they will move mountains. In The Art of Caring Leadership: How Leading With Heart Uplifts Teams and Organizations, employee engagement and loyalty expert Heather R. Younger outlines nine key ways that leaders can ensure all their employees feel included and cared for. Based on Younger’s interviews with over 80 leaders for her podcast, she shares how all of us have the ability to manifest the radical power of caring support at work, no matter what the context or circumstances.

Younger takes an often nebulous, subjective concept and makes it concrete and actionable—emphasizing that leaders have the power to change the lives of those they lead. They shouldn’t just “want” to care, they should see caring as imperative for the success of their employees and their organization. Though Younger stresses that this is not a cookie-cutter approach: just as Monet and Picasso expressed themselves very differently, each leader should express caring in their own unique, personal way.

Whether you’re looking for increased productivity, customer satisfaction, or employee engagement, Younger stresses that you need to care for your employees first. Join us to learn more about caring leadership.
