The Art of Caring Leadership
Author: Heather R Younger
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 1523092211
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 241
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. Here's the thing: most leaders think of themselves as caring leaders, but not all of them act in alignment with what that means for employees. Leaders may not be able to identify the level of care they are extending to their employees, but all employees intuitively know whether their bosses or managers are caring for them. Heather Younger argues that if you are looking for increased productivity, customer satisfaction, or employee engagement, you need to care for your employees first. Genuinely caring for people means that you want to see them succeed for themselves, not just for what they can do for you, your team, or your organization. This book incorporates ten sections with breakout stories and interviews that outline the necessary steps to make all employees feel included and cared for, as well as a call to action for all leaders. Younger states that leaders who have the positive power to change the lives of those they lead shouldn't just want to care for them; they should see it as imperative for the success of their employees and their organization.

The Healing Heart—Families
Author: Allison M. Cox
Publisher: New Society Publishers
ISBN: 1550923153
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
Stories and narratives aimed at helping families work through an array of subjects like health, illness, grief, adoption, sexual identity, and school. The Healing Heart provides powerful examples of the use of stories and storytelling in encouraging resiliency, empathy, respect, and healing. These engaging books contain stories, and narratives about the use of the stories in activities with different populations (children, teens, those with disabilities, seniors, inmates, etc.) or which address specific social or community problems (addictions, poverty, violence, racism, environmental degradation, homelessness, abuse). The books are a collective effort containing the expertise of more than 60 storytellers and health professionals who illustrate the power of story in moving others to commitment and action, in building self-esteem and mutual respect. The Healing Heart ~ Families focuses on families, dealing specifically with healing through story, health promotion, disease prevention, early childhood intervention, children with medical problems, adopting families, schools, sexual identities, grief, and spiritual healing. The Healing Heart ~ Communities focuses on community-building, with sections on youth, violence prevention, poverty, domestic violence, substance abuse and addiction, racism, elders, culture, environmental protection, homelessness, and community development. Praise for The Healing Heart ~ Families “Both children and adults, sick or well, need the embrace of soulful storytelling. They need to witness and be witnessed, for it is in this state that healing occurs . . . . If newscasters were to read aloud each night to their listeners for 1,001 nights one of the stories from this treasury, we would all be healed and lose our fear, recapturing real security in our homeland.” —N. Michael Murphy, MD, author of The Wisdom of Dying “An extraordinary work . . . . Hit the bulls eye by providing both process and practice. Thought provoking and insightful theory is intertwined with appropriate stories for direct application. It makes clear that story can be a powerful catalyst for change, giving eloquent voice to what many of us have known for some time but have been unable to express. What a gift for those who work with families!” —Elizabeth Ellis, co-author of Inviting the Wolf In: Thinking about Difficult Stories

The Future Has an Ancient Heart
Author: Lucia Chiavola Birnbaum
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475932626
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 419
Book Description
Feminist cultural historian Lucia Chiavola Birnbaum caps her previous work with The Future has an Ancient Heart, a scholarly study of the transformative legacy of African origins and values of caring, sharing, healing, and vision carried by African migrants throughout the world. Birnbaum focuses on the long endurance of these values from the first human communities in south and central Africa, ones that Africans manifested in the region of the African mediterranean landmass that later separated Africa from Europe and Asia when the ice melted and waters rose. These migrants reached every continent and later became spiritual as well as geograpical migrations back to Africa, from ancient times to the transformative present. Using the same methods as her teaching, Birnbaum employs a mutual learning process in her work to help us think about our own ancestral story, adding to the wisdom we need to surmount contemporary crises and give us the energy to help bring a more equal and just world into being. Her methodologies are grounded on empirical techniques of science and the social sciences and yet leave openings for the liminal knowledge that resides underneath and beyond boundaries of established religions, secular ideologies, and conventional science. A true work of transformation, The Future has an Ancient Heart opens the door to new possibilities within our world.

Publisher: Gospel Light Publications
ISBN: 9780830746491
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 196

Conflict simply is. Believing that we can somehow avoid it can only damage our relationships, but when we learn to integrate our needs and wants with those of others, it can be a catalyst in our relationships for deeper loving care.

Caring for Horses With a Servant's Heart
Author: Sheri Grunska

ISBN: 9781505501070
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
I have written a daily devotional for the horse professional and the horse lover in all of us. This book will make your day better before you go out to the barn to do chores or work with horses. You will never look at your barn chores or riding your horses in the same way ever again. I now see the Lord in everything on our farm from watching the horses play outside to carrying fifty lb. bags of grain and cleaning stalls and finding joy in it. I think of him now in how I talk with my clients and how I run our barn. I have written this yearlong daily devotional to inspire you and make you laugh and even tear up at times. This devotional book will make you look at horses in a whole new way. It sure did for me as I was writing this book. Running a horse business or owning horses for pleasure can be great and at times it can be tough at times. I have written 366 days (yes, I've included February 29th) of stories and experiences of owning horses and working with horses and admiring horses for all they are. Each story and experience brings me back to the Lord and shows me how my life relates to everything that I do on our horse farm and in every horse I work with. At the end of each day and story is a bible verse that I truly believe relates to what the story is talking about. The more I dug deep into all that happens with horses through out their life the more I saw God in all of it. As I was writing this book I became more and more lifted up with each story I put down on paper. I pray this book will lift you up each day before you head out to the barn or give you a peace after a long day working with horses. I hope to give you a renewed excitement for all that you can be in the world of horses.
