The Rise of Compassionate Management (Finally) - Bronwyn Fryer - Harvard Business Review - http://blogs.hbr.org/2013...
"I also have a suspicion. It’s just a hunch, but I suspect most of us are experiencing cynicism fatigue. The overwhelmingly bad news springing from the news media leaves most people with two options: either they become cynics who drown themselves in their own pleasures, or they try to make a difference. Most of the smart people I know are little a bit of both, but they fight their cynical side. They try to work on something of worth at work and in the world. There is no better way to start doing this than to practice the golden rule on an hourly basis." - Bill Sanders
