Kindness isn’t just a nice quality for leaders—it’s a strategic advantage.
The Compassion Lab at the University of Michigan showed that kind leaders help cultivate a positive workplace culture.
Organizations with high kindness scores outperform their peers by 30%, and 92% of employees said they are more motivated to perform their best when their leader demonstrates kindness and respect.
Research from Stanford indicates that kindness in leadership encourages psychological safety, a crucial element for creativity. Teams led by compassionate leaders report 23% more innovative ideas, as they feel safe to take risks and voice their unique perspectives.
