Empathy

Some people think that empathy has no place at work…that work requires hard-nosed logic and checking your emotions at the door. They believe empathy means never hurting anyone’s feelings. But empathy doesn’t mean you have to coddle people or feel the same way they do. It means acknowledging other’s feelings, thoughts and view are valid, whether you agree with them or not. Most importantly, empathy smooths the road to forward movement and problem-solving.
