Developing Leaders Quarterly (DLQ) is published by Ideas for Leaders, the leadership focused publishers that work with the world's premier thinkers around leadership and organizational behaviour related themes.

This issue of DLQ explores the role of care and compassion in organizations, and how and what leaders should be doing to build more human-centred leadership approaches to their leadership practice, to foster greater purpose and performance.

In a wide-ranging series of articles we examine the benefits and challenges of being more compassionate in your leadership style; and have particular focus on self-compassion from Dr Kirstie Drummond Papworth of London Business School; Michelle Holliday, zeroes in on how to weave care and compassion into our organizational systems; while renowned author and expert Maria Ross writes on the force of empathy in this context. Judith Parke, a director at the Wellbeing Outfit does a deeper dive on the importance of psychologically safe environments to harness organizational energy; Mena Kumar, a senior HR executive shares her insights on care as cure and Suzie Lewis, former director of Airbus's Leadership Academy kicks the whole issue off with her powerful tour of the topic.

In other pieces, Samir Selmanovic writes on a modern update of the Hero's Journey in the Immigrants' Journey; while Elana Friedman starts a new occasional series focusing on middle management; and Orit Wolf shares her role as both artist and innovator.
