The Power to Transform! What does Compassion have to do with a 'Make A Difference' work environment? Many think that being compassionate is for placators -that it's about letting people walk all over you rather than addressing directly unnecessary and unskillful behaviors. What you will experience when 'putting compassion first' is just how palpable and powerful it actually is in transforming every kind of challenging situation the human experience offers. I have just recorded a new personal message for you about how why I wrote my Make A Difference with the Power of Compassion gift book Please take a few minutes to watch my video: Click Here for FREE Download for you to use at your place of work: Interesting feedback we've received from men and women in Corporate America: It's been reported to us, countless numbers of times, that our Teddy Stallard Story flash movie, about a teacher who saves a lost child, touches men so deeply that they can barely make it through the first time without stopping the movie to collect themselves. Walter Wood, a 6 ft. 2 in., 250-pound construction worker wrote: "This short, but profound, film actually brought tears to my eyes. It made me realize that I must be more mindful when I'm training my apprentices." Jim Lekas, a Soccer Coach out of Portland, OR wrote: "I have read this story before but still had to use my shirt sleeve while watching it. Compassion for others is huge, for both children and adults. I have seen the power of compassion come alive and change a whole culture of an organization. The key is sustaining it." Women in Corporate American - when showed our movie - the largest percentage reporting back to their managers and supervisors, did not admit to being emotionally affected by the movie. Only with a little prodding would they admit that they were deeply affected and/or that they did in fact cry! What does gender have to do with compassion? Nothing biologically significant, and yet everything to do with learned behaviors and societal beliefs. I've been out on the speaking circuit and one of the top things I was asked at Women's Conferences was how could they (women) not get emotional - or cry - at work? Men today are accessing their emotional selves and it's generating vast improvement in how we treat each other. The answer for us all lies in the transforming Power of Compassion! Judy Pearson, Founder of Ki Communications and an admitted "Director" Personality Style said this: "I am not much for gushy human interest stories that drip in sentimental syrup so when I began reading Making a Difference with the Power of Compassion I was a bit apprehensive and not really looking forward to it. However, as each story unfolded I became more aware of the various ways the act of compassion can change the energy of any situation. I found myself practicing compassion in intense business dealings, the grocery store line, driving my car and in conversations to my family. This book is great!! You have done a masterful job of touching people's hearts and motivating them to be the compassionate person we are all meant to be." Men and women alike are all products of our childhoods and our environments. There are a lot of lost and lonely people moderately functioning in our places of work and communities. To generate a work environment that brings out the very best in people, you simply must get back to treating people as if they mattered. Compassionate connection does this in the face of any kind of undesirable behavior or absence of productivity. What we - as a society - tend to do, is much like what Miss Thompson did initially: put big red F's on the work being handed in and treating people with disdain and skepticism. What we all have the capacity within us to do, however, is to seek understanding. It is through understanding, we can access that compassionate place within ourselves to reach out and let people know that they matter. Compassion is the variable that will re-energize your workplace culture--and inspire greater loyalty. Despite what some may think, working harmoniously with challenging people will not be won on the front lines by changing specific techniques and processes at the "be nice" level. Rather, it's a culture of compassion and understanding that makes the difference in all human interactions. Statistics indicate that court appointed Anger Management Classes are not as successful as had been hoped. New findings reveal that as people learn to reconnect to their Core Values, which includes learning how to re-access inherent compassion, that there are great sustainable gains being made and that these offenders are not repeating their visits to the judicial system. Professional trainers now working with court appointed abuse offenders are teaching them the power of compassion, and it's working in profound ways. If it works in this arena, certainly compassion will have a huge impact in the culture of work and home environments as we place importance on it. Compassion is helping to transform our mass consciousness to one of peace and harmony. It is the one act - the one decision - that allows people to get in intimate touch with the innermost core of their being. To know that they have more power than they have ever realized, to know that they can influence what is happening through the energy generated from compassion. Compassionate connection gets it done!! Reaching out to make a difference ...
