Leadership Empathy

Leaders who make it a habit to engage others empathetically are able to pinpoint the root cause of poor performance, lack of engagement, or those at risk for leaving the organization. It is not a “nice to have” skill but a management priority that focuses on building understanding around what someone actually thinks and feels about a task, person, situation, or event. This understanding informs how you coach and support them moving forward.

At WLH, we help leaders develop their Leadership Empathy skills through a live or virtual workshop. In our leadership empathy workshops we teach leaders to:

• Employ the principals of empathetic leadership
• Improve critical thinking and decision-making skills with greater accountability and ownership
• Create a more inclusive environment where no one is afraid to surface real concerns
