SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, May 7, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — New book “Hardwired to the Heart” by Mike Barnes is released, a powerful guide for developing authentic servant leadership through conscientious action and vulnerable courage

“Hardwired to the Heart” by Mike Barnes has been released worldwide. This 162-page guidebook, which has achieved Amazon Bestseller status as #1 New Release and #12 Bestseller in the highly competitive “Leadership” category, lays out a step-by-step path for developing a compassionate, purposeful style of leadership that sees team members as people first, coworkers second.

Through poignant lessons learned over nearly 40 years in leadership positions, including what he has learned and practiced from his leadership certifications, Barnes combines wisdom, thought-provoking principles, and practical exercises to present a manual for impactful, altruistic leadership.

Leading from the heart, seeing the unique potential in each person, and embracing vulnerability are at the core of the author’s teachings, and the “Activation Exercises” at the end of each chapter prompt readers to think deeply about what those principles mean in their own lives.

Barnes sees leadership as a privilege, and his dedication to serving others is apparent not just in the specific lessons the book contains, but also in the overall tone of patient, actionable guidance presented page after page. From pillars of core competency to reframing long-held assumptions about the purpose of leadership roles, Barnes examines what truly helps organizations – and the individuals that compose them – thrive.

With a perfect balance of digestible language and probing, meaningful ideas, this book is truly transformative, and will serve as a reference guide for growing leaders time and time again. By connecting the actions of leadership to the values of the heart, Barnes shows the path for a new approach to management and interpersonal relationships. With care and compassion, honesty and vulnerability, and the willingness to embody a spirit of courageous authenticity, leaders of all kinds can change the way they see themselves, their work, and the world around them.

“Leave a piece of your heart in everything you do.”

“The term “must read” is often overused. But when it comes to Hardwired to the Heart, the term is insufficient. This guidebook by Michael Barnes should be required reading for everyone in a leadership position, including teachers and parents. By sprinkling in vignettes and life experiences, Barnes has written an inspirational book on the beauty of leading with a servant’s heart, and he does so in realistic and relatable ways. I highly recommend Hardwired to the Heart to all who seek to lead with selflessness, kindness, and humility.”
