Vince Rougeau | Healing from a Place of Dignity and Understanding

Healing is perhaps the most ambiguous of the 10 characteristics of servant leadership. Every person processes pain differently, but it’s often the unspoken wounds we inflict on others that call for intentionality in compassion and compromise.

As Vince Rougeau, President of College of the Holy Cross,  advises, by taking the time to listen, you’ll often find that the path to healing is easier than you think.

In this episode on healing, Vince shares his unique insight on staying grounded in healthy relationships, building coalitions around differences, and the liberating power of forgiveness.
