LEADING COMPASSIONATE ORGANIZATIONS

This past week I had the honor of speaking at Izumi Foundation's Partners Meeting. Being in the company of purpose-driven leaders was incredibly inspiring. Izumi practices trust-based philanthropy and has been a leader in centering and supporting organizational compassion with its partners.

The resources this week shine a light on the work that is being done to build and support compassionate organizations.

  • This case study from the Focus Area for Compassion and Ethics describes the use of Human Centered Design to build organizational compassion.  

  • A quiz from Greater Good you can use to assess compassion within your own organization.

  • Compassion for others is impossible unless we have it for ourselves. Dr. Kristin Neff is an amazing resources on what this means.
