A caring leader cares about the people and the outcomes. A caring leader moves beyond the surface and focuses on the development of the team and continuously improving. Bob DeKoch and Phil Clampitt join Kevin to discuss the caring leader. Caring leaders ask how they can help by removing barriers or discovering a plan of action, not doing the work.
