INSPIRING HELPING PROFESSIONALS TO BECOME LEADERS IN THEIR ORGANIZATIONS

372lTbxepFJ.png

This book is the product of a 30-year career (and counting!) focused on doing good in the world, spent on trying to improve the quality of life of self and others, and dedicated to fulfilling the needs of those most in need.

In it, Michael shares his personal experiences with organizational leadership and his insights on what makes a good leader in the helping professions, incorporating anecdotes, case studies, and current cultural profiles to illustrate his points and arguments. 

 

Though not a memoir, each chapter of this narrated guidebook reflects the author’s viewpoints on the essential and extolled roles helpers hold in the workplace and why their particular contributions and talents have never been needed more and should be valued like never before.

 

People who do good in the world can also do well—more than that, they deserve to do well on the basis of their altruism and commitment. If you’re looking to advance your helping professional career while simultaneously advancing the human condition for the people you serve and for society at large, you’ll find much in these pages that speaks to you … and hopefully inspires you to make even more of a difference than you already are.

“It’s been amazing leading multiple companies throughout my career—what it’s taught me and what it’s brought me. But leading people is my real passion. It’s unbelievably gratifying to play a role in guiding others to their
professional aspirations. Having that privilege for the last three decades
has been my life’s greatest honor.”

- Michael L. Kaufman
