Kindness and Ambition – Why One Doesn’t Have to Cancel Out the Other
A Talk by Joanna Dew (Team Coaching Cafe and Life Coaching Cafe)
About this Talk
We often think that being Kind means giving up on high expectations in the workplace.
However, this does not have to be the case, and in fact at work, having high expectations and being ambitious is actually a kindness in itself.
It hard to juggle this balance though, how can we encourage people to stretch, learn and grow as well as put their wellbeing first?
I have developed a model for this - the Stress, Stretch, Comfort model gives us a structure for finding this balance and work and with our teams.
