Ep 7: Practising empathy in the workplace

Powrup

On this episode of PowrUp - a podcast by Powrsuit - Nat and Kristen chat about demonstrating empathy in the workplace. As leaders, we want to build high-performing teams - what if one of the key prerequisites was empathy? We share what it means to us, how we’ve applied it in the past, and of course, leave you with an action to practice ‘putting yourself in another’s shoes’. Share your love or feedback here: bit.ly/powrsuit.

We cover: 

  • What does empathy mean to us
  • The difference between sympathy and empathy
  • How to demonstrate empathy by being curious
  • Creating belonging and trust
  • Bringing your whole self to work
  • The one-on-one meeting
  • The great empaths of our time
