The Power of Love at Work –
Solving Big Problems Through More Loving Solutions
A Leadership Retreat to Advance Your Success
Why does being loving and compassionate matter in successful organisations today?
How can wise leaders respond ethically as global change demands action?
What does it take to thrive in a complex world that’s shifting radically?
Used in a work or business context, ‘Love’ is a word that can strike fear into the most courageous of hearts, especially those of leaders, managers and other prominent figures who worry that they may be misunderstood if they express Love for their people. Yet some of the most successful business leaders in the world (including AliBaba’s Former Chairman Jack Ma, net worth $35.8 billion) use the word freely at major global events :
“To gain success a person will need high EQ; if you don’t want to lose quickly you will need a high IQ,
and if you want to be respected you need high LQ – the IQ of Love.”
Jack Ma, Alibaba, World Economic Forum
‘Love’ is defined here as a resource, an intelligence and a way of being, it is a quality, a value, a verb for action, also a noun, and is expressed in the care and regard for a person, work or organisation that is unconditional, satisfying in itself, regardless of the return one receives.
Love is more present in organisations than we notice or acknowledge. It underlies much of what we do that is not driven by fear, stress or coercion. Love powers our efforts to manifest what we believe is good, what will benefit others, or is in service to our visions, ideals and values. Love’s presence can be seen in the founder’s urge to serve, bringing something of value into the world, in people’s desire to connect, and be productive in meaningful ways, and in the engagement, passion and creativity we bring to work.
“Love is simple decision theory. Finding creative ways to Love
solves every leadership problem I can imagine.”
Rodney Ferris, Author, Learning to Love
In today’s VUCA environment (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) Love is a powerful, liberating resource, a reliable moral compass when it is released into action in organisational life, strong, purposeful and transformational – one of the best tools a leader can have in their kit to inspire their people and encourage remarkable results.
“When Love is present, when values are lived rather than cited then forgotten, there is vibrancy and unity permeating the culture, bringing better performance at all levels.” Christine Miller
