Mark Graban, from KaiNexus, and Karyn Ross discuss her upcoming webinar.

July 11 from 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm ET

Presented by Karyn Ross, Founder of The New School for Kind Leaders

People often think that lean is a kind way to work. But lean is a thing – and things aren’t kind or unkind – people are! In order for leaders to be able to develop people to work in lean ways, create, and innovate, they need to lead with kindness.

In this webinar, you’ll learn about the Three Key Kind Leader Practices of Thinking, Speaking, and Acting Kindly, from Karyn Ross’s latest book "The Kind Leader: A Practical Guide to Eliminating Fear, Creating Trust and Leading with Kindness," and how and why they are the key to lean leadership.
