I needed people on my team to crawl over broken glass at 3 AM to get stuff done. And they did that because they knew I cared for them, more than the organization did. I'd still give pretty unvarnished, candid advice, to the members and up the chain too. I'm not sure Twitter, formerly X is a good example to use, it was more of an established system that can very well atrophy over time, especially if the employees are not passionate of the firm.

This is a part of caring as well, assuming it's done right (it can certainly be done wrong).

Eventually there might be a phase where you complete start not giving a damn! But that cost comes at peace i guess.
It’s possible to care without coddling. The best bosses I’ve had have been quick with blunt feedback, and that honesty extended to all areas, which built trust and showed they respected me. These are the times I worked extra long hours, because I enjoyed it, and I did my best work.
I’ve had other bosses who really didn’t care. The only time I heard from them if they were getting yelled at about something, and I really don’t think they care if I lived or died. With these people I’m just punching the clock. They give me the bare minimum, and that’s what they get back.

The premise that you can stop (or start) caring is like "Stop thinking so much".
The key is the connection between the idea and the action. "Don't always act on your feelings" would be a more sensible article, but perhaps not so catchy for your biog.
