After observing a number of situations recently where leaders seem to have a lack of understanding of those they lead, it got me wondering about measurable empathy intelligence. We have tests, assessments and scales for every other kind of intelligence but empathy intelligence doesn’t even exist. As far as Google is concerned.

Feeling seen, heard and understood are some of the most important feelings we can have. Making customers feel seen will stand out!
