Infuse Compassion Into Companies
Description
As humans, we want to work in an environment where we are valued as people, not just as workers. Yet as business leaders, we sometimes get caught up in the whirlwind of work and forget to treat people with dignity and compassion.
The Infuse Compassion Into Companies conference is a reminder of who we want to be as business leaders and of the positive benefits of increasing humanity in the workplace.
You’ll hear from experts in a variety of fields focused on the human side of work: how we treat each other. Seminar participants will also get a chance to engage with each of these thought leaders in breakout sessions to get your specific questions answers.
The goal is to get more organizations focusing on compassion in business and realize the benefits that come from treating people more like people.
2025 introduces the first ICIC conference, but we hope to make this an annual event with new thought leaders and ideas each year. Join us and give your feedback to help us Infuse Compassion Into Companies.
ICIC is NOT about
- Being soft at work.
- Avoiding accountability.
- Weak leadership.
ICIC is about
- Treating people with humanity.
- Getting better results.
- Building leadership skills.
Conference Schedule
The inaugural ICIC conference will be held virtually on November 14, 2025, from 12:00 noon to 4:00 p.m. Eastern/9 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Pacific.
Session 1
Amy Quesenberry
Motivational HR Expert
How You Show Up Matters!™
Regardless of your role or the size of your company, your impact makes a difference. How you show up at work truly does matter. You can change the trajectory of a project, your career, and even your company by how you show up!
Emotional Intelligence First Aid: Self Leadership
Self leadership includes emotional self-management, impulse-control, self-motivation, having a growth mindset and it also includes self-compassion. Having compassion for yourself increases your ability to have compassion for others.
Session 2
Michelle Choate
Speaker
Session 3
Lawrence Henderson
Speaker
Compassion as the Cornerstone of HOT Leadership
HOT Leadership means having Humility, Openness and Transparency which can help us transform our leadership style by embracing through compassion.
Lead Like a Person
The best leaders focus on both results and people. But we inadvertently set up first-time people leaders to lead more like a position than a person, which can lead to high turnover, poor morale, and low productivity. In this session, we’ll discuss how to overcome this problem and gain the benefits of a leadership team focused on people.
Session 4
Mark Carpenter
Speaker
Session 5
Carrie-Lynn Hotson
Speaker
Infusing Compassion Into Conflict Resolution
Whether you’re the CEO, a people leader, a coach or an HR professional – helping others resolve conflict is a part of your duties. Carrie-Lynn will walk us through a fantastic tool she created to help people get to the root of the conflict for optimal understanding and resolution.
Meet the Moment!
As leaders we are regularly faced with challenges and opportunities – but are we Meeting the Moment? Is our approach proactive and intention, are we thinking through the impact and planning accordingly. Through powerful storytelling Shiggs will walk us through the power of Meeting the Moment!
