S3 Episode 37: Compassion in Coaching and Leadership with Kirstie Drummond Papworth

Kirstie Drummond Papworth comes to The Coaching Inn today to talk with Claire about her new book Compassionate Leadership. We have a wide ranging conversation: What makes compassion powerful? We hear a lot about empathic leadership - how does compassionate leadership connect to this? Aren’t coaches already compassionate? Depth, research, wisdom and tips...   Takeaways Compassion has a powerful impact on individuals and organizations, improving well-being, resilience, engagement, and performance. Self-compassion is crucial for coaches and individuals, as it allows for gentleness, relaxation, and smarter decision-making. Noticing suffering and addressing biases are essential steps in cultivating compassion. Starting small and taking compassionate actions, even in less than a minute, can make a significant difference in someone's life.
