paper is to determine the relationships among compassion, conscientiousness
trait, and employee performance. Findings
revealed that there were significant relationships among compassion,
conscientiousness trait, and employee performance. Compassion, which is in the field of positive psychology and
increasing in importance in the recent times, is separated from concepts such
as pity, empathy, and sympathy due to many characteristics. Compassion is an
emotional response that involves being respectful, being sensitive, giving
close attention and active and positive participation towards others with a
desire to help. A high level of this spiritual competency positively affects
the performance of employees. Accordingly, compassionate employees create more
productive and trustworthy workplaces.
