Leading with Gratitude

Adrian Gostick Β· 2020
76/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

A million-employee survey plus named case studies of turnaround CEOs gives this more empirical grounding than most gratitude-in-leadership books manage. The eight-practice framework is genuinely actionable, even if the core message β€” recognize your people more β€” will feel obvious to some readers. Gostick and Elton are reliable guides in this space, and this one delivers on the promise of their brand.

✦ Penny’s Take β€” this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below.
