Work is Love Made Visible is a collection of essays addressing a common HR and recruitment talking point; finding purpose in what we do. Among the most common reasons employees quit their jobs, good businesses ignore it to their peril. All 27 contributors to the book detail how they tackle the universal struggle with individual purpose and meaning; how personal thought patterns contribute to real-world action; how leaders turn challenges into opportunities; and how these successful professionals arrive at their life’s purpose, and what they sacrificed to get there.
Based on the leadership philosophy of centenarian Frances Hasselbein, who was recognized by the former US president Bill Clinton for her transformation of the Girl Scouts of USA in the 1970s, as a Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient for her work as "a pioneer for women, volunteerism, diversity and opportunity." The book starts the conversation with some of the world’s greatest thought leaders on what they see, and how their vision shapes their lives, decisions, and contributions.
In addition, the book features new thoughts from some of today's most influential leaders in business (World Bank Group, Inc. and Best Buy), academia (Rice University and University of Pennsylvania), social enterprise (Doctors Without Borders and Junior Achievement Worldwide) and military.
