Are you leading your team, or just managing them? In this episode of Show Your Value, Lee Benson sits down with Mark C. Crowley to dismantle the myth that leading from the heart is a soft skill.

After a highly successful 25 year career in financial services, Mark walked away from a major bank acquisition because of a repelling corporate culture. That pivotal moment sparked a journey to discover the hard science behind human performance. Through his research with the Institute of HeartMath, Mark found a staggering truth: feelings and emotions drive 95% of human behavior.

If you want your organization to achieve impossible goals, you have to understand the science of reciprocity. People are hardwired to go above and beyond for leaders who genuinely care about their growth and well being.
