Program Objectives
Demonstrating empathy as a leader is vital to develop trust and foster a happy and safe workplace. It is a key quality for leaders wanting to inspire, motivate and engage their teams in an open and authentic manner. How do we understand what they have gone, and are going through? It is deeper than just putting ourselves in their shoes to try and understand their thoughts, feelings and emotions. It is about having a level of emotional intelligence to ensure the people felt understood, cared for and supported as they encounter challenges in their personal and professional lives. Genuine empathy allows us to connect with people on a level that seeks to understand their values and motivating factors. In doing so, leaders can truly create the right work environment needed for their teams’ happiness, productivity and performance.
