Why you can be direct and empathetic at the same time

Empathy Talks is a podcast about life’s most important soft skill: empathy.

In each episode, we talk to a well-known business leader to find out what empathetic leadership really looks like. We unpack why empathy is so important, and learn why having it in life and business is more important than ever. We also deep-dive into those tough leadership moments where you need to lead with empathy to get it right.
