In this session we will look at what it is to lead with compassion (both for self and others), the real and evidence-based benefits for the organisation and why leading with kindness is one of the most courageous decisions an individual can make.   We will consider: What makes a kind and compassionate leader? · What is the evidence base for a new approach to leadership thinking? · How is kindness demonstrated in our own leadership practice? · What gets in the way of compassion and kindness in leadership practice? · How can we develop our own practice as a kind leader?
