"I believe that man will not
merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone
among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a
spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance." Nobel Prize acceptance speech, December, 1950
A human being is part of
a whole, called by us the Universe… He experiences himself, his thoughts
and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical
delusion of his consciousness. |
We are a group of researchers working in business schools who strive to create a new vision of organizations as sites for the development and expression of compassion. We are part of a broader community of scholars who are dedicated to developing a perspective on organizations as sites for human growth and the development of human strengths. |
