Character at Work: How Servant Leadership Will Transform Your Workplace

by Todd D. Hunter

"I hate my boss." Frustration with a supervisor is the number one reason for workplace dissatisfaction. Bitterness can distract us from doing our best. While the economic toll of employee disengagement is a dollar amount larger than any of us can imagine, the relational toll is even worse. Contempt of others ultimately destroys the soul. But according to organizational leader and church bishop Todd Hunter, work can be different. He writes, "My heart sings at the thought of a fairly treated, contented and appropriately challenged workforce that experiences personal and professional growth on the job. . . . The best way to do this is to create thousands of new servant leaders." In these pages Hunter reveals the most important factor of the heart—that is, the leader's desires, beliefs and attitudes. If change in your workplace seems impossible, this book will revolutionize your leadership by beginning with your internal transformation. Are you ready to take the journey?
