Working from the Heart: A Way of Life

by Manager Development Services

Overview

If you are reading this book, you have probably been told to read it by your manager and your manager has probably begun practicing a radical new philosophy of managing. This new philosophy, “Managing from the Heart,” is designed to teach managers how to engineer a work environment in which employees are provided the opportunity to acquire the necessary tools, interaction, and instruction which will propel the employee to success. If you are fortunate enough to work for a manager who “Manages from the Heart,” you will be assisted, instructed, mentored, and counseled through a process which will nurture growth toward unrealized potential.
This book is written for you, the employee, and is designed to create the awareness and understanding necessary to take full advantage of this environment opportunity. The employee who embraces this philosophy will begin a journey of growth in which they will develop “personal power,” allowing the individual to succeed at whatever they attempt.
By working in conjunction with their manager and coworkers, this employee will discover that their success, their coworker’s success, the success of their manager, the success of their department, and the success of the business for which they work are all interconnected – when one succeeds the other succeeds; when one stumbles, the other bleeds. The employee will learn how to grow individuality while, at the same time, sharing allegiance to something bigger than himself.

About the Author

Manager Development Services does one thing and one thing only; we specialize in training managers in the "art" of managing people. We teach managers how to inspire their staffs to become vested in the success of the business and take ownership of their positions. With this, employees become Career-Minded instead of Job-Minded, which means they show up at 7:55 instead of 8:05. They leave their baggage at the door and are proactive and self-managing.

With "ownership," staff understand the principles of interconnectedness and social responsibility - they strive to excel. They understand that everything they do either enhances or diminishes them as a person. They understand that each task, no matter how small or seemly insignificant, adds to their skills, talents, and character. In the truest sense, they are working for themselves, refining their most valuable asset - them.

We teach managers the principles of what we call, "Emotional Engagement." Most managers don't want to get into what they consider "that touchy feely stuff." But let's face it; people are human beings - not automatons. And unless a manager learns how to service his or her staff on a “human being” level, “that touchy feely stuff” will undermine his or her department. Success in business is all about relationships. Make raving fans of your staff and they will be willing to go to war for you.
