Workplace leaders are responsible for a lot - from the nuts and bolts of hiring and budgeting to the logistics of scheduling and reporting. Too often the more relational skills of building trust, strengthening communication, and establishing cooperative teamwork are much less of a priority. This often leads to an imbalanced, unsustainable, and unhappy work environment. As workplaces become increasingly diverse and dynamic, relational skills are essential to the longterm success and well-being of any organization.

 

“In today’s culture, talented employees seek supportive work environments where empathy, support and compassion are the norm.” (Bryan Robinson, Ph.D., Forbes)

 

Companies across the globe are learning the benefits of investing in the relational skills of their employees. Values-driven leaders with good communication skills and empathy for employees build stronger teams. Turnover is lower, absenteeism drops, and employees are happier and more productive. While managers often receive training in logistics, it is critical that workplaces provide training around how to build greater understanding, trust, and cooperation within teams.
