LOVE As a Management Practice: The Motivating Power of Love at Work

You hear of someone talking about love in the marketplace. What comes to mind? One of the first things might be romantic relationships between coworkers, which can prove troublesome in many ways. John Earl Johnson is a strong advocate of love in the workplace, but in a very different sense.In Love As a Management Practice Johnson explores ways in which the motivating power of love found in 1 Corinthians 13, the so-called love chapter of the Bible, can be applied in leadership and management settings. Drawing on 60 years of experience in the business world, in marketing, advertising, management and consulting, Johnson believes love as a management practice can be a game-changer for individuals and corporations when expressed and practiced as God intended. Each chapter includes exercises and questions for individual reflection and application. A small group study guide is included in the appendix and provides for meaningful discussion, application, and mutual accountability. In the end, Johnson is convinced that you will discover a simple truth: Love never fails.
