Poppy discusses the importance of empathy in today's hybrid work environment and breaks down what empathy truly means.</p> <p>Empathy is our ability to see the world through other people's eyes. It involves being compassionate to their feelings and emotions and requires us to put our own egos aside. Self-awareness is also key to empathy as it allows us to recognise our own imperfections and be more curious and compassionate towards the imperfections and differences of others.</p> <p>Poppy also touches on the neuroscience behind empathy, with the emotional centre of our brain perceiving the feelings of others and the cognitive centre of our brain working to understand and help them. &nbsp;Empathy is a vital skill for leaders to cultivate as it allows them to connect with their teams on a deeper level, understand their needs and perspectives, and ultimately drive better results. Tune in to this episode to learn more about empathy and how to become a more empathetic leader.</p> <p>~</p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAaueI8BhxzDM2H4n2yjOUzimoD_YKbKJgQ">Poppy Griffiths</a> is a professional coach and speaker on high performance.
