Compassionate leadership helps teams function better, with clearer communication, more satisfied teams, less staff sickness and ultimately a safer environment for patients – although these factors are difficult to quantitatively measure. Dr Liz Thomas will draw on her leadership experience to talk about the highs and lows of leadership. She strongly believes that we all have leadership qualities and that it is possible for us all to blossom with the right encouragement.
