What is Metta Leadership ?

Metta Leadership is designed to cultivate conscious, wise, human-centred leadership. Leaders who complete this program are equipped to foster a supportive culture and lead their organisations with integrity and strategic vision.

The program emphasises traits such as friendliness, discretion, and alertness, which are essential for leading in today’s complex environments. Leaders who practise empathetic leadership report a 60% increase in employee engagement, according to the Harvard Business Review. By focusing on holistic leadership, Metta Leadership helps organisations cultivate leaders who are not only strategic but also empathetic and mindful, which is critical for long-term success and ethical decision-making.

A study published in The Journal of Business Ethics reveals that empathetic leadership contributes to a 30% improvement in team collaboration and ethical decision-making, leading to stronger organisational culture and higher retention rates.
