Abstract
Compassionate leadership is an imperative for healthcare organizations; it remains more than necessary in turbulent times of pandemic situations, in which medical staff experiences not only psychological burden, but also ethical and existential dilemmas. Envisioning compassionate healthcare practices for a post-pandemic world is grounded in the view that organizational culture and leadership are interdependent and synergistic.
Healthcare leadership must be embedded within caring climates, reflecting compassion, as well as empathic concern for self and others. Such a shift in leadership focus toward sensitivity to the needs of both self and others necessitates moral edification and appropriate training programs, high levels of trust, mutually supportive interactions, and sharing of knowledge, skills and experience Equally importantly, encouraging personalized, patient-centered care enacted by compassionate policy-making and implemented through humane and ethically sensitive practices is expected to be both economically efficient and societally beneficial and even more importantly, sustainable in the long run.
