It's a common belief in business that the heart has no place in workplace management. In fact, most of us were taught that the heart acts like Kryptonite in leadership: it inherently undermines a manager's effectiveness and lowers productivity and profitability. But in this revised and updated edition of his groundbreaking and now classic work, leadership and engagement expert Mark C. Crowley provides irrefutable proof that we were wrong. He will show you:  · how traditional leadership practices are failing · how to keep employees satisfied and productive · how to help employees feel valued, respected, appreciated, developed and cared for · an entirely new model of leadership that is needed to match up to the needs and motivations of 21st century workers · that recent medical and social science discoveries prove it's the heart, not the mind, that drives human motivation and achievement  Lead from The Heart represents a future where management and employees work towards a common goal and employees are empowered to take ownership of their work. This book shows that when you 'Lead From The Heart', your people will follow.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49750969450769,"sku":"NGR9781837822768","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/183782276X.jpg?v=1750963362"},{"product_id":"lead-from-the-heart-book-mark-c-crowley-9781452535425","title":"Lead from the Heart","description":"If you're a leader in America, you've got a big problem.

This guide shows the data-driven alternative: measuring and improving employee well-being for lasting results.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e For years, companies have trumpeted employee engagement as the lifeblood of success, weaving grand promises of thriving workplaces and soaring performance. Yet, Gallup's data shatters this façade: a mere 30 percent of US workers and 21 percent globally are engaged today, dismal figures essentially unchanged for over a decade. This rather damning reality exposes a commitment not just half-hearted but utterly disingenuous. Perfunctory surveys, dusted off once or twice a year, vanish into the void, sparking no meaningful change, while ineffective or toxic managers sidestep accountability with ease. The fallout is a workforce drowning in disillusionment, tethered to a metric that's broken beyond repair. In \u003ci\u003eThe Power of Employee Well-Being\u003c\/i\u003e, Mark C. Crowley unveils a revolutionary vision, proving well-being ignites fierce commitment, unleashes boundless productivity, and forges workplaces where people and profits thrive.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhy Well-Being Matters\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Drawing on a University of Oxford study of 17 million workers, Crowley urges leaders to abandon flawed engagement metrics and champion well-being. Far from a soft idea, it drives results. Gallup, Harvard, and London School of Economics studies show organizations prioritizing well-being gain 27 percent higher profitability, lower turnover, and better customer satisfaction. Yet, with three-quarters of US professionals facing burnout and a 74 percent surge in mental health-related leave (2023-2024), the crisis is urgent. Crowley highlights belonging--feeling valued, respected, and connected--as well-being's core, yet 94 percent of leaders overlook this vital driver.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eA Practical Roadmap\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Building on his trailblazing book \u003ci\u003eLead from the Heart\u003c\/i\u003e, Crowley delivers a concise, actionable guide for busy managers to cultivate well-being and unlock team potential. Through practical strategies, he equips leaders to meet workers' core needs: caring leadership, manageable workloads, emotional support, growth opportunities, and fair treatment. Unlike hollow wellness programs, debunked by Oxford research, Crowley's methods reshape daily team experiences. His insights, forged over decades as a leader and researcher, are anchored by formidable data, including a British Telecom study linking well-being to higher sales and customer satisfaction.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eA Leadership Revolution\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e With a foreword by Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, a four-time \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author, \u003ci\u003eThe Power of Employee Well-Being\u003c\/i\u003e is a clarion call to reject superficial fixes and ignite a leadership revolution. Crowley brilliantly distills complex ideas into a vital guide for busy managers. With 52 percent of workers willing to take a 20 percent pay cut for better well-being, stakes are high. This is the essential playbook for leaders to build thriving workplaces where retention soars and teams excel.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53612890587409,"sku":"NGR9798890571298","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9798890571298.jpg?v=1780315703"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-de\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-mark-c-crowley.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
