Compassionate leadership with Massimo Backus

By Andy Storch | September 20, 2022

What I’m proposing is that in those moments, it’s helpful to actually check in and say, what do I need in this moment to be kind to myself so that I can get back into a place of resilience and abundance and make the right steps forward?

In the Hot Seat: Massimo Backus on why self-compassion is important for good leadership

Andy welcomes repeat guest Massimo Backus this week on The Talent Development Hot Seat. He is an executive coach, speaker, and author of an upcoming book on compassionate leadership. Massimo has spent several years as a learning and development practitioner in multiple companies. He recently left the employee world to become an entrepreneur as a leadership development coach and facilitator.

In this episode, Massimo Backus defines compassionate leadership and why the concept of self-compassion is important to good leadership. He then dives into the three main components of the principle of self-compassion and why they are especially important for leaders.
