Why read it?

1 author picked Love 'Em or Lose 'Em as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The authors are skilled at drawing you in and presenting the case with myth busters and paths for change. I love the angle of empathy fueled suggestions for managers to adjust their skills for better outcomes with team members. It's truly the conversation that many corporations avoid and suffer losing high-performing talent in the process. It's a playbook for employee retention and satisfaction... and more importantly, a reality check for management with a new focus on diversity and inclusion. Diversity of thought and experience are celebrated throughout the book and this makes me smile.
