compassion in business

Along with hiring the right people, creating a good work environment is also required to help foster and maintain a solid workplace culture

Stanford University's Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education co-sponsored the Dalai Lama's visit to Silicon Valley for a talk on business, ethics and compassion. It highlighted recent achievements at Stanford's center, which continues to make research progress in the "science of compassion" while calling attention to the importance of well-being in our society.

The latest research suggests that a more compassionate workplace, where helpfulness and forgiveness are part of the business model, is a more productive, efficient and happy place to work
