Experts Spreading the Message
Two experts are at the forefront of this movement:
- Emiliana Simon-Thomas: Studies how kindness affects our brains and health.
- Kia Afari: Helps companies become kinder places to work.
They're hosting an event called "Why Kind Leaders Win" to share their insights.
Event Highlights
At this event, big-name leaders and researchers will talk about kindness in business. Speakers include:
- CEOs
- Professors who've studied the power of kindness
One study even found that kind leaders:
- Make companies more valuable
- Make customers happier
A Call to Action
Simon-Thomas and Afari want to start a change. They believe kindness shouldn't be a side program—it should be at the heart of every company.
If your boss isn't kind, maybe it's time to find a better job. Kindness isn't just a nice idea—it's a smart way to lead.
