$2 Billion Daily Loss for US Workforce May be Resolved by New Leadership Development Book About Civility & Empathy

Beautiful Together: How to Become a Better Leader & Bridge Builder by Julian S. Newman Debuts with Advance Praise by CEOs and HR Executives

GRAND RAPIDS, MI, UNITED STATES, October 7, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Leadership development expert and diversity & inclusion thought leader, Julian S. Newman, has officially released his highly anticipated book, Beautiful Together: How to Become a Better Leader & Bridge Builder. Paperback and eBook formats are available now at www.beautifultogetherbook.com and on Amazon.

Beautiful Together provides a roadmap for leaders looking to resolve conflicts; create environments of understanding, and build more inclusive teams in today’s complex workspaces and polarized world. With practical tools, resources, and inspiring stories, Beautiful Together is a must-read for C-suite executives, HR managers, and leaders committed to fostering civility, empathy, and belonging.

The importance of civility in the United States is a critical imperative per the 2024 SHRM Civility Index Research. More than 161 million people work in the United States every day, and 58% of U.S. workers believe our society is uncivil. U.S. workers collectively experience over 200 million acts of incivility daily, leading to approximately $2 billion per day in reduced productivity and absenteeism. The study further highlights that “practicing civil behavior establishes a safe and empathetic environment where individuals can contribute their best ideas, knowing they will be heard and valued. Civility is more than making others feel comfortable; it’s about creating a dynamic, diverse, and productive workplace where everyone can thrive.”

Beautiful Together is a transformational guide inspired by Julian’s expertise as a leadership development authority with more than 20 years of experience in the non-profit sector, education, and ministry. As a subject matter expert, he has been featured in Forbes Magazine, has spoken to more than 100,000 people internationally, as well as led workshops, and talks with groups at global corporations and organizations including Google, Leo Burnett, UN Women, and Wolverine Worldwide. Beautiful Together combines powerful storytelling, leadership principles, and practical solutions to help readers become more effective bridge builders—both at work and in their personal lives.
