La Juste Bienveillance
For an aligned, high-performing company
Why “yet another book on kindness”?
To adapt to a world where permanent change has become the rule, one answer for companies is to see kindness and excellence not as opposites but as the two complementary, inseparable sides of the same coin. It is by combining them that the people of a company come together to move toward real, lasting performance.
Fair kindness, which brings excellence with it, starts here and now, with simple, accessible postures and behaviors. It can move fast, snowball and go “viral” in our professional and personal lives. Remarkable advances in neuroscience, numerous studies and many real-world achievements now prove the incredible gains it brings for people, and therefore for the company.
We call it fair kindness because kindness is too often mistaken for complacency, and that distorts how it is adopted, embodied and put into practice. This book shares practical keys and postures. To go far down this path, we need to change our perspective and focus on all the benefits to be gained. (In French.)
Co-written by the champions of Fair Kindness: Thierry Willième, Caroline Raymond, François Durnez and Anne Varin de la Brunelière.
Fair kindness is the posture of the heart in the Heart Head Hands model: welcome before you clarify and act.
