Sometimes the greatest ideas come from the heart: Compassion is the fifth “C” that makes the other C’s relevant. What purpose is there to do any of the 4 C’s, without acting in a way out of empathy for our brethren? As we broaden the qualification for who belongs in that group, from family and friends, community and country, to all global citizens, the point of focusing on using our creativity to thinking critically and collaboratively, give us more than something to just communicate about -- we move the world forward well.
