Compassionate leaders understand the importance of emotional intelligence and body intelligence, in addition to that of head-based intelligence. In recognizing these other forms of knowing, we simultaneously broaden our powers of understanding and responding to the world, and we deepen our capacity to use our miraculous thinking brain.
Psychology is a science. Writing about psychology, however, is an art. It takes a gifted writer to describe human nature and the complex human brain in engaging, expressive prose. In The Gifts of Compassion: How to understand and overcome suffering, Stan Steindl, PhD, displays the artistry of a storyteller backed by the knowledge and scientific grounding of a University professor.
