The Empathy Edge: Why Compassion Fuels Leadership Success and How to Build Your Empathy Muscle | 21 | 1 | 2021 | 12 p.m. | 1 | 3 | Virtual |
Furious customers and failed business launches. Partnerships abandoned out of fear, projects destroyed by misunderstanding. Sexism. Gender Inequality.

When we are unwilling to place ourselves in someone else's shoes -- unwilling to talk, listen, or understand another point of view -- we remain paralyzed. Instead of finding solutions, we repeat the same mistakes. This impacts our professional reputation, team's productivity, customer experience, and organization's performance.
