It’s been proven that kindness in the workplace has a stunning ROI. Kindness decreases stress, reduces employee burnout, and builds increasing levels of happiness and satisfaction in the workplace.

Imagine a company culture where employees feel valued, recognized, and empowered enough to go the extra mile for customers and colleagues; where the leadership can be authentic, transparent, and connected to their team. The Economy of Kindness: How Kindness Transforms Your Bottom Line provides real-life examples of companies that have employed kindness as their secret weapon to build and maintain their organizations.

“The choice of kindness is ours. As we offer it, we should also expect it, even demand it from our companies, our media, and each other. We can reach across the table, the aisle or the cubicle to begin to see each person as a valuable human being with their own gifts and challenges. These people may not look like you or even have the same beliefs as you and yet they still deserve and desire kindness. Be willing to offer a listening ear, patient understanding, and the opportunity to find our commonalities rather than our differences.”

Author Linda Cohen documents the impact and results of companies utilizing and instilling a company culture of kindness to excel in adversity.
