Mary Freer imagined a compassion revolution taking place in the healthcare sector. Her dreams turned into actions, and spread like wildfire through the ranks of doctors, nurses, aged care workers, executives, CEOs, not-for-profit leaders and entrepreneurs from London to Australia. What had these professionals so enthralled? A new, research-backed take on the power of compassion. Not fluffy. Not nice-to-have. Not kindness, even. No. This is compassion as a revolutionary act. A swath through bullying, blaming and exclusionary workplaces. A full stop to the many destructive practices that drive down the quality of work performance and wear away our mental wellbeing. This revolution demands compassion both fearless and forthright. It is compassion as a fortress, a balm and a life raft. And the research is clear: compassion is also the path to more productive, more profitable and far friendlier, more fulfilling workplaces. This book contains easy to practice workouts for your compassion muscle. Each chapter is thoughtful and engaging and aimed at anyone who wants to develop more compassion for themselves and others. When reading Compassion Revolution, be prepared for a warm hug and a push between the shoulder blades. The time is right to start now. Freer shows you how to use what you have and keep going until the revolution is won.
' Compassion is often looked upon as intangible; something that' s nice to have, but hard to pin down. Mary Freer' s work speaks directly to the tangible side of compassion: its personal, social and even financial impact, and the ways you can bring it into your own world. ' Kirsty Stark, Producer, Epic Films' Every single time I meet Mary I feel better about myself, my life and the world around me. I don' t know how that happens, but if this bookcomes anywhere close to explaining it, you must buy it for everyone you know. Straight away. ' Ross Fisher, Consultant Paediatric Surgeon, Sheffield Children' s Hospital
