Dinah Maria Mulock Craik was one of the most successful women poets and novelists of the 19th century. She published her first work, “The Ogilvies,” in 1849 to critical acclaim, and soon garnered comparison to such influential writers as George Eliot. “The Ogilvies,” in which this quote appears, follows the romantic entanglements and subsequent marriages of three cousins (a popular 19th-century literary convention, as Jane Austen proved decades earlier). Craik’s words offer a timeless truism about love’s cyclical nature — that the care and compassion we give others, we’ll receive in kind.

Love is a Leadership Principle
Lead With Love = So many people don’t know what love is. In Greek, there are words for 4 different types of love—romantic love, brotherly love, and the love between a parent and child. The 4th word for love—the type that represents a leadership principle—is Agape. This type of love is a verb, how you behave, not how you feel. Love is patient, kind, trusting, truthful, forgiving, unselfish, and it is dedicated to love in all circumstances. If you want to be a better servant leader, lead with love.Love Unconditionally = No matter what happens in life, having someone who will listen to you and love you, is unconditional love. Unconditional love is having someone you can go to and say anything to, and they will always love you. Nothing can replace unconditional love.

There Is Value In Loving People = John shares with us that we need to love people, indicating that all of his previous lessons from his father are products of loving people. By adding value to people, traveling the high road, and encouraging others—all of these lessons are rooted in loving people.
The Highest Compliment = Love others as you love yourself. There is so much power behind the word love, use it generously and wisely.
It's Always About Others = When you stop loving your people, you have essentially concluded your ability to effectively lead them. While it is important to lead with authenticity, so your people believe in you, it is far more important for you to believe in your people. Your leadership depends on it. Without it, you might as well quit.
