Empathy Is True Leadership

Empathy Is True Leadership

When you show deep empathy toward others, their defensive energy goes down, and positive energy replaces it. That's when you can get more creative in solving problems. Stephen CoveyWould you prefer that they follow your commands or that they follow you?  This is not a trick question.  Leadership is not about rank, titles, power or privileges.  Leadership is not about authority or being in charge.  True leadership is the willingness to place others' needs above your own.  Regardless of how busy you are, make the time to check in with your team members often.  Make the time to really ask "Is everything OK with you? How can I help you?".  Thoughts?  "
