Research demonstrates enhancing compassion increases productivity and employee engagement and reduces the likelihood of burnout, attrition and medical errors. This session will explore a set of ?compassion infusions,? including leadership-focused compassion conversations (how to safely facilitate sharing of suffering with colleagues), compassion affinity groups (demonstrating the power of bringing motivated employee volunteers together in service to others) and interdepartmental conversations (bringing together diverse groups, such as food services and physicians to talk together about the shared meaning and challenges of their work). Attendees will have the opportunity to share compassion initiatives from their home institutions.
