Break Barriers with Empathetic Leadership is designed for leaders who are ready to lean into empathy as a tool for connection, growth, and productivity on their teams. The class introduces the concept of empathy as more than just understanding—it's about actively engaging with team members’ emotions and perspectives, even when they differ from one's own experiences.

The class opens with the wheel of emotions, and the benefits and importance of engaging with unpleasant emotions in the workplace. We’ll discuss our “innate” capacity for empathy, including how it can drive connection and where it falls short. The class will end with a case study and breakout room where learners discover how to learn about the experiences of others. 

After this class, leaders will be able to: 

• Differentiate between empathetic and non-empathetic responses
• Use self-reflection as a tool to connect with the experiences of others 
• Describe ways to increase empathy in an ongoing team situation

Once you register, you’ll have access to asynchronous articles and tools.
