If you can't pour from an empty cup, how can we expect employees to foster the kindness and civility this conference champions? Over 4,000 studies demonstrate self-compassion's power to build resilience, mitigate burnout, and improve wellbeing – vital for counteracting workplace incivility's corrosive effects. Research shows workers higher in self-compassion are more buffered against emotional exhaustion in uncivil environments. In addition to protecting worker well-being in uncivil environments, this valuable skill can foster empathy and greater tolerance and acceptance of others.
Yet, self-compassion remains misunderstood and underutilized. Join self-compassion researcher Dr. Jennifer Stuber and wellness authority Cassie Christopher, MS RDN, to debunk misconceptions, translate research into actionable strategies, and experience self-compassion practices. Dr. Stuber will also share insights from her study of Mindful Self-Compassion in first responders, offering transferable lessons for crafting interventions to transform your workplace culture and cultivate a kinder and more resilient workforce.
