I’m in a leadership role and want to support and build up the crew. I enjoy helping other achieve their goals. Are there any authors or speakers who don’t have a dehumanizing corporate manager mentality?

Who writes about genuine supportive leadership topics that I can study?
Because of my trades experience I’m in a position to lead a small crew of full time techs. I want to support them and help them grow but I don’t know the best way to do that. I want them to be accountable to me and each other as a team but I hope I can build them up to achieve their personal goals.

I’ve stated my beliefs with them from the beginning because the old leader was archaic in his “work comes first” mindset.
In my opinion, We work to make money because we have to so we can live our lives. We don’t live to work.
