Love at Work: Why Passion Drives Performance in the Feelings Economy

By Brady G. Wilson

Book Overview

Love at Work foments a revolution for workplaces of every description and in every industry: a revolution in which leaders understand that engaging people's hearts trumps engaging their minds. Wilson shows how leaders who love: believe in their people; pull out their highest good; serve their success; and challenge them to stress. When people's felt needs are met, says author Brady Wilson, they release the energy that triggers discretionary effort — 400% more effort, according to the Corporate Leadership Council. The principles in this cutting-edge book are sure to change the face of the workplace for years to come.
