It is too easy to become jaundiced about the possibility of organizations as places to thrive, to be appreciated, to grow and make a contribution. The media jumps on every example of wrong-doing, greed and irresponsibility. It would be easy to be left with the impression that working in organizations is a soul destroying experience of being taken advantage of by greedy and exploiting leaders.
As a student of organizations and consulting in them for over twenty-five years, after having worked as an executive in them that reality is very unlike the one I know. So it is particularly refreshing to see PBS's special on Leading With Kindness.
Congratulations to Bill Baker, Michael O’Malley and the inspiring group of executives and employees the gathered to tell this story.
