In today’s challenging talent market, finding an edge is important. Focusing on empathy could the secret weapon. As workers increasingly prioritize empathy, it has become an indispensable element of a thriving organizational culture. Fostering empathy is not just a nice-to-have; it is an absolute necessity for a healthy workplace. SHRM launched a survey in 2022 to delve into the levels of empathy within organizations and its profound impact. The results are undeniable – the more empathetic the organization, the better the organization performs.
Join us to hear more about the empathy survey and what you can do at your organization to focus on empathy.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discover the tool used to measure empathy in the organization, the Empathy IQ.
  • Explore the eye-opening findings of the survey and gain a deeper understanding of what they teach us about the importance of empathy in the workplace.
  • Acquire practical strategy and guidance on how to embed empathy, formally and informally, in your organization.
