Empathetic leadership: The decisive factor in transformation

In times of rapid change, it is no longer just specialist knowledge that determines the success of leadership. Rather, empathetic personalities are needed who can guide diverse, highly skilled and interdisciplinary teams through uncertainty and change. Our half-day live online seminar “Empathy Leadership Training” is aimed at HR managers and executives at all levels. It offers a practical introduction to one of the core soft skills of modern leadership.

Empathy: The underestimated skill of modern leadership

In our change-driven world, empathy is not a “nice-to-have” but a core strategic skill. It leads to better decisions, inspires teams, builds trust, and creates lasting motivation. Empathetic leaders combine professionalism with humanity. That is more in demand today than ever before.

Self-reflection as the key to success

Empathy begins with looking inward. In our training, we promote your ability to self-reflect:

  • Why do I do certain things – or refrain from doing them?
  • What emotional reactions do I trigger in others?
  • How does my behavior influence decisions within the team?

This reflection is the foundation of effective leadership. With specific methods and tools, you will strengthen your empathy and develop your personality.

People at the heart of successful change

As experts in the human side of transformation, viadoo is convinced that only those who take people’s emotional reality seriously can successfully shape change. Digital transformation processes in particular give rise to uncertainty and fears – empathetic leadership helps to address these constructively. Our training prepares you for the challenges of everyday leadership.

Communication that connects – not divides

Empathy is particularly evident in communication. You will learn how to build trust and resolve conflicts constructively through targeted conversation, active perception, and appreciative feedback. This increases the performance of your teams and reduces staff turnover.

Lasting impact on your professional and private life

Empathetic people enjoy greater recognition not only in their professional lives, but also in their private lives. Empathetic leadership strengthens your charisma, your effectiveness, and your career opportunities. Our seminar is therefore an investment that pays off on many levels.

Free Whitepaper »Psychological Safety«

Whitepaper Psychological SafetyEmpathy is also crucial to create a psychologically safe working environment. According to a Gallup study from 2017, this in turn can

  • reduce staff turnover by 27 %,
  • lower safety incidents by 40 % and
  • increase productivity by 12 %.

In this white paper, we describe four steps for (change) leaders to establish structures within their companies that integrate psychological safety into their teams’ everyday work. We also include a link to our ChangeCAST on this topic.

1. Registration

Your binding registration as a participant for a webinar usually takes place via the corresponding online registration form of viadoo GmbH. The contract is concluded by your registration and sending of our registration confirmation. Our seminars are usually limited to ten participants. We therefore consider registrations in the order of receipt. Registrations are not transferable to third parties. We currently conduct webinars regularly using Microsoft Teams. The corresponding access data may not be passed on to third parties as well.

2. Participation Fee

The rates shown on our website at the booking date apply. The participation fee includes the costs for the online seminar and, if applicable, any handouts in PDF format. The participation fee is due immediately upon invoicing without deduction and irrespective of benefits from third parties (e.g. employers). Payment must include the full invoice number and the name of the event.

3. Rebooking and Cancellation

You can rebook or cancel your participation free of charge up to one week before the event. However, rebooking and cancellations must be made in writing to meet the deadline. After this date, we will charge the full participation fee. The substitution of participants is of course possible.

4. Reservation of Right to Change

We are permitted to make changes to the content, methodology and/or organization of webinars, if this does not significantly alter their benefits for you as a participant. If a lecturer is unable to attend at short notice due to illness or other unforeseen reasons, we may appoint other lecturers to ensure that the webinar can still take place.

5. Cancellation

We have the right to cancel a webinar due to a low number of participants (at the latest 10 days before the scheduled date) or due to other important reasons for which we are not responsible. We will then refund the participation fee already paid by you. Further liability and compensation claims are excluded in such cases, unless it is a case of intentional or grossly negligent behavior of employees or vicarious agents of viadoo GmbH.
