Engineering Empathy - Spark the Heart! Join me and my guest Dr. Nicole Price, a leadership development expert who believes two things: 1) everyone wants to do a good job, and 2) empathetic leadership is critical to leveraging that desire. In our conversation she dispels common empathy myths such as “empathy is a trait that you’re born with or not” & “empathy requires you to take on the other person’s beliefs and values.” As a trained chemical engineer, Dr. Nicole would have, a few years ago, been the last person to tell a leader to practice empathy. Today, her work brings empathy to boardrooms across the country and creates stronger, more sustainable companies.
