Shaping Culture and Leadership in NHS Wales


Compassionate Leadership develops compassionate cultures and is embodied in how we attend, understand a person's challenges through dialogue, empathise and help by removing obstacles in their work and helping to ensure they have the resources they need.

The Shaping Culture and Leadership in NHS Wales is a package of presentations, activities and resources that can be used to train your workforce on compassionate leadership.
