Kindness Publishing
Kindness Publishing is a niche publisher specializing in leadership, business, and legacy books for accomplished professionals. We are proud members of the International Book Publishers Association.
Every Great Business Has a Story.
Some deserve to become part of our history.
At Kindness Publishing, we believe remarkable lives and remarkable businesses shouldn't disappear with retirement, succession, or the passage of time.
We seek out founders, business leaders, and community builders whose journeys can inspire future generations.
Sometimes they come to us.
Increasingly...
We find them.
We don't begin with a manuscript.
We begin with a conversation.
Kindness Publishing: Books That Inspire Better Leaders, Better Teams, and Better Communities
At Kindness Publishing, we help authors turn their values into impact.
Our focus is simple: leadership, kindness, and the power of values-driven action.
We believe that meaningful books don’t just inform—they transform. Whether we’re publishing works on leadership, customer experience, organizational culture, or community engagement, every project is built around the same core idea:
Kindness is good for business.
Kindness is good for leadership.
Kindness is good for communities.
What We Publish
We collaborate with professionals, business owners, and leaders who want to share their story, their expertise, and their values. Our books emphasize:
-
Leadership grounded in empathy and service
-
The role of kindness in customer relationships and workplace culture
-
Values that strengthen organizations and communities
-
Real-world stories that inspire trust, loyalty, and connection
These books become powerful tools for credibility, outreach, and influence—whether used in business development, local engagement, speaking events, or team training.
Why Our Authors Choose Kindness Publishing
As part of The Kindness Revolution Corp, Kindness Publishing blends professional book development with a cause-driven mission. Authors work with us because they want to:
-
Build authority through a message rooted in purpose
-
Share meaningful stories that reflect who they are and what they stand for
-
Strengthen their brand with a book that opens doors—not with pressure, but with values
-
Create something lasting that inspires others to lead with integrity and compassion
Every book becomes a conversation starter, a credibility builder, and a reminder that leadership is most powerful when it’s rooted in kindness.
Why It Matters
A values-based book doesn’t just sit on a shelf. It sparks connection.
It creates goodwill.
It reminds people that leadership is most meaningful when it lifts others.
When readers hold a Kindness Publishing book in their hands, they’re holding an invitation—to rethink what leadership can be, to reconnect with what matters, and to make kindness a daily practice.
We believe in honest publishing partnerships — not unrealistic promises of bestseller status, bookstore placement, or overnight success.
What we do promise is a thoughtful, professional publishing experience designed to help authors share meaningful ideas with the audiences they are best equipped to serve.
Author Ownership and Rights
At Kindness Publishing, we believe authors should maintain ownership and control of their work.
Unlike some publishing arrangements that require authors to surrender long-term rights or publishing control, our collaborative publishing model is designed to keep ownership where it belongs — with the author.
What This Means
Authors retain:
- Full copyright ownership of their manuscript
- Ownership of their intellectual property and ideas
- The ability to use their content in speeches, training, coaching, podcasts, courses, and marketing materials
- The freedom to purchase author copies at cost for events, recruiting, or promotions
- The ability to continue building their personal brand around the book
- Access to their final manuscript and publishing assets
Depending on the publishing agreement selected, authors may also retain the ability to:
- Republish future editions
- Translate the book into other languages
- Create audiobook versions
- Adapt content into companion materials or workbooks
- Transition distribution in the future if desired
Our Philosophy
We view publishing as a collaboration — not a takeover.
Our goal is to help authors create a professional, meaningful book that enhances their visibility, credibility, and long-term impact while preserving their ownership and voice.
Two Publishing Paths. One Mission.
At Kindness Publishing, every book begins with the same question:
Does this message have the potential to make a positive impact?
To support authors at different stages of their journey, we offer two publishing pathways.
Publsihing Collaboration
Our publishing program is designed for professionals, business owners, and community leaders who want a collaborative publishing experience. Simply stated, this is for the author who has their book "in their head" and needs assistance in getting it to paper.
Authors receive professional guidance throughout the development process, including editing, design, publishing support, and marketing resources. This model allows authors to bring an important message to market efficiently while retaining ownership of their work.
Traditional Publishing Opportunities
From time to time, Kindness Publishing selectively enters into traditional publishing agreements with authors whose platform, expertise, audience, or manuscript align closely with our mission.
Under these arrangements, Kindness Publishing may assume a larger portion of the development and publishing investment.
Because these opportunities are limited, traditional publishing partnerships are offered by invitation or through selective review.
We are particularly interested in books focusing on:
- Leadership
- Organizational culture
- Community engagement
- Personal transformation
- Kindness and service
- Values-based business practices
Our Philosophy
Regardless of publishing path, our goal remains the same:
To publish books that help people lead better, serve better, and create stronger communities.
We believe great books are more than products.
They are tools for influence, credibility, education, and positive change.
