There is a lot to gain for employers who show empathetic leadership to their workers, according to a recent Dayforce report.
Among workers who say their organization does not empathize with employees, 90 per cent believe having leaders show more empathy would make a positive difference in their work life.
This includes improving their job satisfaction (52 per cent), improving their job performance (39 per cent), increasing their productivity (37 per cent), improving mental health/levels of burnout (48 per cent) and making them more loyal (41 per cent).
