Why do we need empathy in the workplace?

"Why You Need Empathy in the Workplace" will guide you through the importance of empathy at work. To experience empathy, you must imagine yourself in another’s place, see things through their eyes, and consider how an experience or emotion might affect them. In the workplace, being empathetic helps you connect with others. It fuels productive conversations, builds stronger relationships, and boosts morale. In short, it’s an essential business skill.
