Leading with Empathy and Grace: Secrets to Developing High- Performing Teams

Do you know that you don’t have to be ruthless or sell out to be a successful leader in a cutthroat business world?

Did you believe the lie that you must be a bully or a fake version of yourself to build excellent teams? Does it make leading unattractive for you, as you consider all that you have to navigate: the landmines of office politics, family responsibilities, and your career ambitions? Did you ever reach the conclusion that being a top-leader and committed parent, partner or active member of your community just couldn't be done at once?

An award-winning leader in technology, committed mother, and debut author - Tammy Klotz - shares how she's built enduring and high-performing teams in the workforce for over 31 years and how you can do the same.

Peppered with short stories from the author and those who know her, the book encapsulates her wisdom. In Leading with Empathy and Grace pages you will come to learn her most valuable leadership lessons that will help you:

• Understand the dynamics both at work and at home that you need to keep in mind as plan for and exercise your leadership role. The author includes her list of 25 qualities to look out for or nurture in yourself as you strive for greatness.
• Plan and carefully assemble your team by knowing who to pick, which may not always be the obvious choice for building a high-performing team.
• Be aware of the five stages of team development and how you can move your team towards optimum performance. The book offers different types of interactions you can choose whilst operating under principles that support your team’s growth. The author shares with you six principles - TTIPPC (‘Tipsy’) - that gives you a workable framework to sustain your team development work.
• Collaborate or influence external and internal partners successfully
• Sustain high performance once you attain it using a pre-disposition of grace, an atmosphere of safety, reciprocity, and resilience.
• Measure Performance and how to respond to or address all types of performance you may encounter.
• Care for yourself: a topic we conclude with as most leaders tend to shove their self-care in the backseat as everyone and everything else maintains a priority.

This book is a rare book that practically shows you that being "soft", offering others grace, and leading with empathy isn't a weakness, it's a superpower. It's time for leaders around the world to be brave enough to step into their softness.
