“For better talent retention and organizational performance, managers should recognize that compassion is not merely a ‘nice to have.’ Rather, it’s an evidence-based skill that is integral to leading effectively and holding teams together.”

The lessons we teach our kids are often the ones we need to relearn.

It's not a coincidence that our favorite children's stories focus on kindness, honesty, responsibility, persistence, and courage.

The values we learn in kindergarten are the ones that matter most in life.

Happy #PinkShirtDay! Being kind to others and creating a positive environment go a long way in preventing bullying. Take a stand, get involved, and let's put an end to bullying!⁠

[U Calgary @UCalgary]

#UCalgary's Dr. Astrid Kendrick discusses the origins of #PinkShirtDay as a chance to reflect on bullying and the impact it has on kids, and what teachers can do if they notice changes in the behaviour of a student. @UCalgaryEduc

[Werklund School @UCalgaryEduc]

A two-year study led by @kendrick_astrid in 2021, found that 50 per cent of education workers in Alberta experienced compassion fatigue and 80 per cent suffered from one or more symptoms of burnout.

Almost anyone can burn bright for a few days. But few can burn bright for years upon years.

I've spent the last decade researching, reporting, and writing about sustainable excellence.

Here are the highlights of what I've learned:

I instruct an upper-year undergraduate course on Healthy Aging at @queensu - for one of the assignments, students were asked to create an infographic discussing a common myth about aging. I have permission to share some of the infographics with you... 1/7

Great article! All these traits combined would seem to bolster the psychosocial factors that are present in healthy workplaces. Good news -- the traits are ones we can develop.

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

We should invest in developing the character of our leaders. Character is a strategic asset: “Character is more than ethics... fostering a culture where it is valued equally alongside competence can result in better decisions & better outcomes”: https://t.co/Gl5bI0tUr1 V @mitsmr

Leaving house today I told myself— “I’ll just grab lunch at work” knowing a. It would not be a nourishing choice b. I’d probably end up skipping it. So I turned around and made lunch. #FieldSelfCareStreak.
