The power of empathy: Episode Notes
When it comes to understanding the power of empathy and its impact on society as a whole, look no further than Mimi Nicklin.
Thanks to her impressive professional experience, and a strong belief in the importance of kindness and decency at work, Mimi has embarked on a journey to bring empathy to the role of leadership.
Empathy is all about taking perspective, and standing in someone else’s shoes in order to achieve mutual gain.
During our conversation, Mimi explains how empathy is a skill that human beings have honed throughout millennia, which has helped us develop cohesion and social understanding. We also clarify that making use of empathy is a choice, as all individuals are equipped with it and are able to practice it.
One of the concepts that stands out in this episode of Stepsero is that of regenerative leadership, aimed at regenerating an organization’s workforce. When empathy is correctly and consistently applied to one’s leadership style, people tend to thrive within the workplace.
Such way of conducting business will be more and more required as Millennials are increasingly moving towards leadership positions.
Below are a few other pointers that we touched upon together with Mimi:
