Book Description
===================
If your people know you care about them, they will move mountains.
Employee engagement and loyalty expert Heather Younger outlines nine
ways to manifest the radical power of caring support in the workplace.

Heather Younger argues that if you are looking for increased
productivity, customer satisfaction, or employee engagement, you need
to care for your employees first. People will go the extra mile for
leaders who show they are genuinely concerned not just with what
employees can do but with who they are and can become. But while most
leaders think of themselves as caring leaders, not all demonstrate
that care in consistent ways. Your employees will judge you by your
actions, not your intentions.

Based on Younger’s interviews with over eighty leaders for her podcast
Leadership with Heart-including Howard Behar, former president of the
Starbucks Coffee Company; Judith Scimone, senior vice president and
chief talent officer at MetLife; Garry Ridge, CEO and chairman of the
board of the WD-40 Company; and Shawnté Cox Holland, head of culture
and engagement at Vanguard-this book outlines nine ways that leaders
can make all employees feel included and cared for. She even provides
access to a self-assessment so you can measure your progress as a
caring leader. But this is not a cookie-cutter approach: just as Monet
and Picasso expressed themselves very differently, each leader should
express caring in his or her own unique, personal style.

Younger takes an often nebulous, subjective concept and makes it
concrete and actionable. 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.
