"What Compassion Can Do for Forward Leaders" Jesus Christ’s compassion towards people was the fuel for His disciples to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ globally. Everywhere Jesus went, His compassion created a culture of love and care for others. He loved them, not what they could do for Him. Compassion Fuels Passion Passion is one of the greatest things needed in a leader. We can get everyone worked up through a motivational speech about how they should do something, but we must also care about them. Perhaps there is more truth in this cliché than we may want to admit: “People never care how much you know until they know how much you care.” Compassion Creates Culture Compassion creates a culture for walking slowly through the crowd, listening intently to what others are saying. This demonstrates an unselfish concern for others—for them personally first, but also for what they do in their job. This kind of compassionate leadership that invests privately into the lives of others creates a capital beyond words or what can be put on a spreadsheet. Compassion Influences Productivity A compassionate leader influences the organization to greater productivity. In fact, there can be 10 times greater production when the leader enters into the world of others with great compassion. This really should not surprise us at all. A compassionate leader brings enormous value to their organization. Today, pray: “Lord, fill me with compassion for others. Allow me to see what others see, hear what others hear, and feel what others feel. Lord, enable me to be moved with compassion.
