Description

In a world that often prizes performance over people, Christian leaders have a unique opportunity to lead differently. Episode #658 explores what both the Bible and modern science say about compassion in leadership—and the results may surprise you.

This episode reveals why compassion isn’t weakness—it’s one of your greatest strengths. Rooted in Scripture and reinforced by the research of Monica Worline and Jane Dutton, we explore how compassion fuels team engagement, boosts innovation, builds loyalty, and strengthens resilience. It’s more than being nice—it’s strategic, powerful, and deeply Christlike.

We’ll examine:

  • How Jesus modeled compassion in every leadership moment
  • Why Paul called us to clothe ourselves with compassion (Col. 3:12 )
  • How scientific research confirms that compassion builds better businesses
  • What real-world leaders can do to apply these insights in practical ways

You’ll learn five action steps to cultivate compassion in your organization, shift from reaction to intention, and make a lasting impact. Whether you manage a small team or lead a growing company, this episode will challenge and inspire you to lead like Jesus—engaging both heart and head.

This isn’t a theory—it’s a testimony. Compassion in leadership not only reflects the heart of Christ but transforms cultures, builds resilience, and becomes a powerful witness to a watching world. Listen now to discover how your leadership can be both effective and redemptive.
