Female manager contemplates an idea

Mind Tools Newsletter

- Are you an inclusive leader? -

Throughout September we've explored the importance of emotional intelligence in managers and know that people skills can be developed. Fairness can be promoted by increasing self-awareness through feedback. And empathy can be developed through diversified mentoring relationships in culturally diverse workplaces.


Cultural diversity is especially important because empathy is a gateway to inclusive leadership. Research has shown that employees are two times more likely to feel “respected and valued” at work when their managers are empathetic.


Here are some of our resources to help you better understand inclusive and empathetic leadership. We're also offering 25% off our annual membership so you can gain unlimited access to our extensive content library for less!
