The Generous Leader
7 Ways to Give of Yourself for Everyone’s Gain
Berrett-Koehler, 2024
Aperçu
People and organizations need compassionate leaders.
Recommendation
When high-level leaders behave in cold-blooded, cruel, or vindictive ways, that ethos dangerously trickles down to society at every level, including the ordinary workplace, writes Joe Davis, managing director and senior partner at the Boston Consulting Group. Employees who remain bruised by the struggles of the pandemic, especially those at lower income levels, are now aware that they have choices about where they work and under what circumstances. Today, leaders in politics or business must practice compassion and empathy to form genuine connections with the people they lead. Davis offers both a solid leadership philosophy and a practical guide to becoming a generous leader.
