Many think being empathic is agreeing with everything others think or finding common ground. Others go even further and label empathy as a weakness.


Yet, in reality, listening and considering others' points of view without defensiveness, fear, or ego takes a lot of strength. Empathy is about connection, not conversion.


In this episode, the brilliant Maria Ross invites us to challenge and resignify what it means to be an empathetic leader. Maria is a TEDx and Keynote Speaker, Business Expert, Entrepreneur, Podcast Host, and Author who helps leaders across the globe to improve their companies' cultures and make the world a better place while they turn a healthy profit.


Throughout this episode, we discuss the significance of empathy in leadership, its role in accelerating a company's growth and impact, and its influence on how quick teams connect and engage. Maria also talks about the five pillars of becoming an empathetic leader, why it is so hard yet crucial to balance empathy with accountability and performance, the role of effective communication in inclusive cultures, and much more.
