Dr Trish Hafford-Letchfield, Professor of Social Work from the School of Social Work and Social Policy, has recently published a briefing paper commissioned by RiPfA - Research for Practice in Adults - which is a national organisation who bring together evidence from research, practitioner expertise and the experience of people accessing services to provide learning and development support for the health and social care sector.
The briefing, titled "Leading with compassion: Supervisors' Briefing (2019)", explores what is needed to support the development of compassionate leadership skills in both supervisors and those they directly supervise and work with. The briefing also provides some practical tools to support the development of compassionate leadership skills across organisations.
Alongside the briefing, Dr Hafford-Letchfield also ran a UK webinar hosted by RiPfA to discuss the briefing's evidence.
