Synopsis

Organisations often want to be more human and more humane but often don't know how to achieve those things. This book describes clear methods of doing just that.

Techniques include sharing power effectively; making consensual decisions without interminable meetings; caring about colleagues and treating them fairly and equally; working in small interlocking teams; and living by the values of compassion and common decency.

The book proposes frameworks that clearly set out to guide processes for achieving better, more caring organisations. Power is built into these frameworks, and this ensures that no individual can abuse power for their personal ends. The frameworks also mean that all discussions get the best ideas from colleagues and ensure that decisions are carefully considered and soundly implemented.

The second part of the book is a series of workbooks that will guide the reader through the process of building a compassionate organisation. There are spaces to record your thoughts and decisions to lead to the successful implementation of the compassionate approach."
