Tribes that have a just cause and purpose have a competitive advantage in good and not-so-good times. Compassionate Accountability distills the essence of what matters most and guides any leader, team, or company on how to build a culture that can flourish even during times of struggle.

Dr. Nate Regier s latest book is a must read for anyone who is in a leadership role, aspiring to take on a leadership role, or trying to improve themselves, their team, or their entire organization today. In a world that seems more focused on judging, blaming and fault-finding, Nate s approach is a breath of fresh air! Compassionate Accountability is not another theory but an actionable process for mindfulness, social and emotional intelligence, leadership agility, inclusion, presence, healthy conflict, and resiliency. Nate brings his over 40 years of executive coaching experience following his stakeholder-centered coaching, as Nate calls it, to bear in the creation of Compassionate Accountability. He guides us each step of the way, from the evolution of compassion and how compassion and accountability are complementary, to the model of The Compassionate Mindset (turning on the VCR Value, Capability, and Responsibility switches), to building a culture of Compassionate Accountability, including real world examples of organizations that have implemented this mindset successfully throughout the company starting at the very top. Nate even includes a section on overcoming the perceived barriers that are often associated with compassion, particularly in the workplace. If you are truly serious about transforming yourself, your team, your entire organization then Compassion Accountability is for you!
