Course Description

Use empathy to grow into a leadership role or grow your current leadership or management position.


PROFESSIONAL INDUSTRY RESEARCH ON EMPATHY IN THE WORKPLACE


See research being done today on what employees expect from their management in terms of empathy. Employees report higher levels of job loyalty, creativity, feeling included, and work productivity when their managers display and follow up on empathy and compassion.


SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH


See the latest scientific research on how empathy works in terms of your brain activity and body chemistry. See the latest studies and discoveries being done on this topic.


ACTIVE LISTENING


Learn to listen to your employees and co-workers better by practicing active listening. When you listen and acknowledge people, they feel more respected, their defensiveness does away, and they open up.


LISTENING TO BODY LANGUAGE


Most communication is non-verbal, so in addition to active listening, we'll also go over body language that you should be attuned to in order to become more empathetic and a better listener.


EMPATHETIC PHRASES TO USE AT WORK


I'll also provide you a number of different phrases to use in various workplace scenarios to help you say the right empathetic thing in different situation. Those phrases will range from conversation starters that get people to open up to what to say in meetings.


EMPATHY IN CASES OF LOSS OR BEREAVEMENT


I'll also show you empathetic and sensitive things to say in case a co-worker is going through loss or bereavement. Plus, I'll show you how to go above and beyond, and not just say things, but show that you care with actions.

True to the idea that people will open up to you more when they feel safe, they eventually shared their struggles by providing coaching and mentorship, allowing them to adjust their workload and get them back on the track aiming to met their individual target and deadlines.

I have 20 years of leadership experience already. dragging on about empathy in leadership when 99% of students made to take this training are not in a leadership role, and the Leadership who does take it, never implement it. Mandatory training? thanks for wasting my time.

By Willie Toombs on 4/17/2025

This course was excellent for me. I appreciated the organized way of explaining empathy without feeling like I was in a lecture. The best part are the actionable steps given to immediately implement. I will definitely be looking for more courses from you. Thanks.

Yes. Have to have empathy when dealing with customers but didn't relize went so far in organization

By Anonymized User on 2/20/2025

As a stoic, I vastly prefer a manager who can give me reasons, not feelings. I am sympathetic rather than empathetic. I do feel many times that manager empathy comes across as disingenuous. On the other hand, active listening should be in everyone's skills, especially managers. Thanks for the look at this topic from the other side.

Good introduction to empathy with emotional intelligence. Well researched course that shows scientific findings. It's organized logically and presented professionally. The subject matter of empathy at work is much needed.

By Anonymized User on 8/24/2024

Lots of research on empathy from different fields like neuroscience but also references the Dalai Lama and his ideas on kindheartedness in order to feel empathy, compassion, and sympathy

By Anonymized User on 8/17/2024

Empathy and compassion are so needed these days. I love the topic of this course, and I am working on using more empathy and active listening in my everyday and professional life.

By Anonymized User on 8/17/2024

Great course on empathy in the workplace, especially as a leadership skill and to help me grow my career through building stronger relationships. I also like the connection of emotional intelligence, active listening, empathy, compassion, and sympathy.

By Anonymized User on 6/8/2024

I appreciate that this student referenced the teaching of Dalai Lama to teach empathy. The instructor brought in Dalai Lama's idea of kindheartedness. It really made sense to me - great approach and well-though-out course.
