In an article on forbes.com website titled, Empathy as a Workplace Superpower, the author, Jason Richmond, notes the value and importance of leaders showing empathy to their team members.
Jason provides several practical strategies for leaders to embrace. First let's talk about honoring the work-life balance of your team members.
Looking for ways to support and encourage your employees' desire to balance their home and work responsibilities will send a positive message. Generous vacation time, opportunities for remote work, or flexible work hours are all ways to show empathy to your team.
Colossians 3:12 says, "Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience."
As faith-filled leaders, look for opportunities to honor your team and their tension between home and work responsibilities.
