Drawing on a wealth of research, real-life stories, and practical models, the book offers a path towards cultivating a Culture of Care within organisations and beyond.

At its heart, The Power of Care invites leaders to embark on a journey of self-exploration and healing. It recognises that effective leadership begins with an authentic connection to oneself.
