Today, I’m going to be talking about Empathy and the role it plays in our personal and professional lives.
If you’re a regular listener, you’ll know that before I get to this it’s time (in the words of my teenage daughter) to make everything about DISC LOL! Here’s this episode’s DISC Analogy - DISC according to… World Cities:
High D – I’ve got to give it to NYC! Loud, Energetic, Work Hard, Play Hard Vibes
High I – Could it be anything other than the city of Love? Paris of course! Romantic, evocative
High S – Geneva. Neutral, peaceful
High C – Singapore. Ordered, disciplined
Okay, today’s episode is about Exploring Empathy. I touched on it briefly during the EQ episodes (5 & 6) because Empathy is one of the cornerstones of Emotional Intelligence.
It’s a key ingredient in building successful interpersonal relationships whether in your personal life or the workplace. And it plays a key role in Leadership. Empathetic leaders propagate loyal team members who want to work hard for them because they feel inspired, valued and seen for who they are and what they’re contributing.
Leading with an absence of empathy creates disconnectedness, resentment and a lack of engagement and productivity.
Wondering how to gauge your level of Empathy?
