Empathy and Leaders - with Kara Dogali

In this episode, Andrea Butler interviews Kara Dogali about developing empathy in leaders. 

The key takeaway from this episode:

• Empathy is obviously a critical skill for leaders to have. The challenge is that empathy is an exceptionally hard skill to develop. You can’t just take a class and have it the next day. It’s something that you really need to work on, which can be particularly challenging today with all the external stressors going on.
• One way to work on developing empathy is to focus on developing the more specific subskills, like active listening, communication, and curiosity. It’s important to take the time and put in the effort to really get to know your people.
