Primary Care Fellows: Compassionate Leadership in the NHS

The Primary Care Academy (South West) would like to invite you to attend a “Compassionate Leadership in the NHS” educational session led by Nicola Harker.

After spending over 20 years in the NHS as a GP and Cancer Lead Nicola retrained as a coach and has been coaching and teaching Compassionate Leadership for the past 5 years.  Nicola is also a trained teacher of Mindful Self-Compassion.

As a participant in this 4-hour workshop you will learn:

• Why self-compassion is the starting point for compassionate leadership.
• The key components of self-compassion, and how to cultivate compassion for yourself.
• The role of Fierce Compassion, and how managing your boundaries and assumptions will help you as a leader.
• Develop a toolbox of strategies to care for yourself emotionally while caring for others who are experiencing difficulty.
• Cultivate leadership skills that will help you to lead creatively and with compassion.

The workshop includes some reflective and experiential components, so it’s recommended that you attend from a quiet space, rather than a busy co-working environment.

The workshop will be held over Zoom and places will be limited to 30, to allow for discussion on the day.
