Kevin Hancock, author of "The 7th Power: One CEOs Journey into Shared Leadership." is the CEO of one of the oldest lumber companies in the US, founded in 1848. In 2010, he acquired a rare voice disorder, which impacted his ability to speak. By studying voice-marginalized communities, he discovered there were ways people could regain their voice by seeing the purpose of the voice clearly. His voice condition became a gift to spread the message about creating a culture of being heard. Here's how you can encourage this culture within your organization, by increasing awareness, awakening to purpose, honoring individual sacredness, and value.
