Empathy is not only important in times of crisis - it should be the foundation of your leadership! Instead of applying pressure, you can use active listening and understanding to create an atmosphere in which everyone feels valued and willing to give their best.
Three ways you can use empathy:
✔ Active listening: Ask open questions and briefly summarize what has been said.
✔ Transparent communication: Share information openly and honestly to build trust and avoid misunderstandings.
✔ Change of perspective: Put yourself in your team's shoes: how do they feel when making decisions?
The result: a closer team, more room for ideas and a stronger company! Empathy is your secret weapon in leadership! The question is: how do you use it?
