About this listen

Updated and Expanded Edition of the Leadership Best Seller

Harness the meaning of love, the verb, to improve your corporate culture and bottom line with the help of Joel Manby, former President and CEO of both SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment and Herschend Enterprises.

Joel won the respect of America with his appearance on the CBS reality TV series Undercover Boss. A highly successful corporate executive, Joel Manby is unlike most other CEOs. As the 18 million viewers of Undercover Boss witnessed, Manby has a unique style of leadership - servant leadership - which has a profound impact on his employees.

In this updated and expanded edition of Love Works, Manby demonstrates that leading with love is effective even in extremely difficult business environments, which he experienced at SeaWorld. With an all-new introduction and two additional chapters, Manby shares more of his own leadership and personal stories, giving insight that will help you become a more effective leader by:

  • Cultivating a culture that builds improved employee engagement and long-term success
  • Outlining seven time-proven principles that break down the natural walls within the workplace
  • Overcoming personal failures at work and home
  • Empowering your managers and employees
  • Disarming difficulties in the workplace

Discover the truth of the power of love to change the course of your business and your life today!

Accompanying tables and charts are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Prepare for late chapters Christian Evangelism

The first roughly 10 chapters provide excellent insight into effective management strategies. But, I was very disappointed how outwardly faith-focused the final chapters became. If this will bother you, as it did me, skip the last 2 chapters. They are more of a summary than anything and spend way too much time trying to convince listeners of Christian teachings.

Refreshingly practical and stories that bring to life

This book has practical insights for becoming a better leader. I’m already using nuggets in my own leadership and the leaders I mentor.

I am blown away with Joel’s story. He’s achieved some of the highest levels of success this world has to offer, and he models humility so well.

Amazing

My heart was touched by reading this book. The sincerity of the author can be felt in this book. I truly believe what he is sharing with the reader he believes in his heart. It's rare to see this, and it's a unique experience that will influence your life if you open your heart to what Joel is sharing.
God bless you Joel.

Beneficial

Admire the author’s courage to share some deep personal and emotional stories that can happen when the DO Goals become more important than the BE Goals. Making promotion, growth, position, title etc more important than values, relations, teamwork etc can be lead to disaster. It can destroy the relationship with those closest and dearest. I rank this book 5 out of 5.

Great read!

As an enneagram type 2, this book was profoundly helpful to me. Too many books tell you what to do and aren’t candid enough to tell you how the author failed, messed up, and persevered in their field. The trick now is to apply it.
