# Whitepaper |  Compassionate Leadership: Coaching Leaders to Turn Empathy into Action

## How does compassion influence leadership effectiveness?

Compassionate leaders go beyond empathy. They don’t just feel it, they act on it. In doing so, they increase their own well-being and that of the people with whom they work, creating a ripple effect that can be transformative for an entire organization.

This article describes recent MRG research on the ways that leaders convey empathy and compassion; it also discusses how to use these results to help leaders become more compassionate.
