All my career I’ve worked in or with organisations, and I’ve always disliked terms such as human ‘resources’ or human ‘capital’. People aren’t stock or machinery, they are human beings who have hopes, talents, struggles and emotions, so I was pleased to read this groundbreaking new book. It’s an evidence-based look at why compassion is important for business success and human flourishing, and how it can be practically developed organisationally by leaders, managers and colleagues.
