<p><strong>The principle of compassion</strong> lies at the heart of all religious, ethical and spiritual traditions, calling us always to treat all others as we wish to be treated ourselves.

Is there another approach?

As I look along my bookshelves I see many hundreds of books on personal and professional development – almost all of which I have read and studied over the past fifteen years or so. Add to this the thousands of hours of seminars, conferences and retreats that I have attended on my own account and as part of our leadership research programme and the sheer amount of information about personal excellence in my head and on my shelves is overwhelming.

What is this all about? Why do some of us spend so much energy looking for the secrets of success in the words and ideas of so many authors?]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://voice.mypathfinder.com/blog/2009/9/2/is-authentic-just-another-faddish-term.html"><rss:title>Is "authentic" just another faddish term?</rss:title><rss:link>http://voice.mypathfinder.com/blog/2009/9/2/is-authentic-just-another-faddish-term.html</rss:link><dc:creator>Adrian Gilpin</dc:creator><dc:date>2009-09-02T22:07:35Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Authentic Pathfinders In our humble opinion Leadership</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This question has just been posed by leadership blogger Dr Ada Gonzalez on <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/groupAnswers?viewQuestionAndAnswers=&amp;gid=39736&amp;discussionID=6709609&amp;commentID=6194886#commentID_6194886" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a> and the <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/groupAnswers?viewQuestionAndAnswers=&amp;gid=39736&amp;discussionID=6709609&amp;commentID=6194886#commentID_6194886" target="_blank">Logos Noesis Blog</a>.&nbsp; This is a stimulating article (and great picture) and it triggered these thoughts in me ...</p>

<p>I wonder if the current focus on "authenticity' is a strong (and largely positive) reaction to generations of hypocrisy from those who should be providing moral and ethical leadership - parents, teachers, clergy, politicians, managers and business leaders.</p>]]></content:encoded></rss:item></rdf:RDF>
