On today’s episode, I sit down with Emotional Wellness Coach, Barbara Erochina, about creating a compassionate workplace. The issue of compassion has risen to the forefront as new research suggests that compassionate workplaces increase employee satisfaction and loyalty. We discuss ways to be a compassionate leader and how to create an office environment where compassion encourages high performance and innovation.  

Barbara combines psychiatric studies with life-coaching techniques to help people using her own approach to emotional well-being. Barbara also created the BeWith Self-Care Cards for her client’s as a tool to help them live a more compassion live towards themselves and others.  

Topics:  

  • Why compassion and self-care has been rising to the forefront 
  • Benefits of being a compassionate leader 
  • How compassion encourages risk-taking and innovation 
  • Compassion vs. Sympathy 
  • The rewards of compassionate leadership 
  • Managing the fear of failure at work 
  • How compassion breeds empathy for others 
  • How the process of change affects workers 
  • The power hierarchy and how it affects office atmosphere 
  • Encouraging a healthy office environment
