Putting Empathy at the Heart of Workplace Culture

It is well known that emotional intelligence and, more specifically, empathy are more important than cognitive intelligence for professional success.

Research from Gallup indicates that teams with higher levels of empathy show 50% higher productivity compared to those with lower levels of empathy. (Source: Gallup – State of the American Workplace Report).

A Harvard Business Review study found that companies with a highly empathetic culture experienced a 20% increase in customer satisfaction. (Source: Harvard Business Review (2014)- The Hard Data on Being a Nice Boss).

A more recent Harvard Business Review study found that employees in organizations with empathetic leadership are 3.4 times more likely to be engaged in their work (2023).

Harnessing emotional intelligence and empathy isn’t just a set of skills or competencies; they provide a strategic advantage in today’s dynamic work environments.
