Going Deeper: Individual & Organizational Love It Resources
The authors of this book were introduced to each other by a mutual
friend who insisted that they had a great deal in com- mon, both
personally and professionally. She was right on both counts. (Thank
you, Susan!)
Their professional partnership produced their first book, Love 'Em
or Lose 'Em- Getting Good People to Stay, and a host of workshops
and products to support managers in their ef- forts to engage and
retain their talent. Their continued work together led to many
discussions and debates and eventually gave way to the book that is
now in your hands.

“Love It, Don’t Leave It is a must-read for all those who want to
take control of their performance and their careers despite today’s
uncertainties. The employee is an active agent, charged with
knowing him or herself well enough to find the right role, set the
right expectations, build the right relationships, and so forge the
right career. In their immensely practical book, Kaye and
Jordan-Evans show how.”
—Marcus Buckingham, coauthor of First, Break All the Rules and Now,
Discover Your Strengths
“Finally, a handbook for taking action that every employee needs
and any employee can use to take ownership and accountability for
their job, career and happiness. When you’re tired of playing ‘the
blame game’ and want to get results, pick up this book!”
—Bob Nelson, Ph.D., author of 1001 Ways to Reward Employees and
1001 Ways to Take Initiative at Work
“This book is a rich buffet of ideas for taking your work to the
next level. I savored this wise and witty book from cover to cover.
Every reader should dip in with gusto!”
—Dick Leider, couthor of Whistle While You Work
“This is not just another ‘fix-me-because-I’m-broken’ book, or
worse, ‘Take this job and shove it!’ Instead, the authors succeed
with sensitivity, wisdom and wit, in offering real solutions that
put employees with workplace woes in the driver’s seat. The reader
is invited to make assertive choices from a menu chock full of
practical know-how and is inspired to put those choices into
action.”
—Stanlee Phelps, master coach and author of The Assertive Woman
“Kaye and Jordan-Evans have done it again—hard-hitting, practical
advice on how to bloom where you are planted. Before you find a
greener pasture, let them show you how to mow the grass.”
—John Izzo, author of Awakening Corporate Soul
“Bev and Sharon have the gift of serving both the interests of
employee and the institution in the same breath. This book offers
another important step in creating workplaces which contain both
commitment and humanity.”
—Peter Block, author of Flawless Consulting, Stewardship and The
Answer to How Is Yes
“This book is full of truth and wisdom. Many people who leave the
place where they worked end up wishing they hadn’t. But they left
because they couldn’t figure out how to get what they need there.
Too bad they didn’t read Love It, Don’t Leave It! It would have
showed them how to stay put AND find what they were looking
for.”
—Bill Bridges, author of JobShift: How to Prosper in a Workplace
Without Jobs and Creating You and Company: How to Think Like the
CEO of Your Own Career

book is a godsend. Chock full of real-world advice from real
employees, every page has proven strategies that can make your life
at work more pleasurable and infinitely more ful- filling. If
you’re going to spend more time at work than at anything else you
do, why not make it work for you? Read this book and find out
how.”
—Charles Decker, coauthor of Beans: Four Principles for Running a
Business in Good Times or Bad
