Dane Maddams is a Director of Product at Culture Amp. In this episode, he challenges the idea that empathy is a soft skill, arguing it's the foundation for team performance. He unpacks the lessons from his "zombie-themed" keynote on psychological safety and discusses the balance between ruinous empathy and radical candor. We also explore the empathy deficit in B2B and how to lead teams through the uncertainty of AI.

Learn how to build the psychological safety that unlocks speed and innovation. Discover a practical approach to empathy that strengthens teams and drives results.
