How to help when cancer or a loss strikes a team member

In this video, we talk to Kim Hamer, a human resources leader and public speaker,  about her consultancy 100 Acts of Love, which empowers leaders to foster team productivity, trust, and engagement when a team member has cancer. By leveraging the power of love, 100 Acts of Love helps leaders create a supportive and compassionate environment that can help their team members thrive, even in the face of adversity.   On April 16, 2009, Kim Hamer watched her 44-year-old husband take his last breath. During his illness and after his death, she was amazed by the helpful ways their coworkers, bosses, friends, and family supported them. Kim started calling their kind actions "acts of love." After the death of her husband, Kim, an HR leader, noticed that managers received no guidance when navigating cancer or death on their teams. She saw how their lack of helpful tools and guidance was costly. It negatively affected employee engagement, increased turnover rates, and lowered productivity. She set out to change that. Combining her personal experience with her professional knowledge and leadership skills, Kim launched 100 Acts of Love, a consultancy that provides tools to help leaders increase team productivity, trust, and engagement when cancer affects a team member.
